While the pictures are from a distance, it looks like you did real well for yourself. Nice looking car, especially for what you have in it. You already know it will make a long road trip, so get busy fixing the little things, and congratulations!

That should be a sticker somewhere that you would see all the time, like the one on the side view mirror. This is the first car I ever seriously considered putting a backup camera on the nose of. It must be because they did not aways require front plates, but California is covered with signs that say, "Do not back into parking place" I put a big piece of styrofoam at the end of my garage just in case. It already looks like it pissed off O.J.Simpson!

I finally got to wash it today, for the first time. Always a real scary moment. Not bad at all!
Paint peeling on hood.
Scratch on back fender I had thought was a crack.
Needs new nose. No surprise.
This is just behind passenger door. It is one inch long and looks like part of the paint job just fell off! No dent, scratch, or ding. Just a hole in the paint.
