Got Another C5!

Actually it's been a couple of weeks now but I didn't have pics so I'm just now getting them up. I traded my 99 Artic White C5 for an '02 Pewter C5. It's pretty much got all of the options. I gotta say, the 3.15s are a HUGE difference over the 2.73. Just thought I'd share!

Thanks all! I was REALLY sceptical about the color at first (before I actually saw it in person). Now, I think it may be my favorite C5 color. Maybe that's because it's mine though!

By the way, the tractor is my dad's. It a '56 Alice Chalmer (I think).

Beautiful car. Tell your Dad that is a nice 50 year old "Allis Chalmers".
