Nice. Just a little FYI. It's best to take pics when the sun is not at its high point. In other words not during mid-day. You'd have better pics with the sun in the morning or late afternoon.

Thanks for the pics.

Nice car, but to quote a member from a few days ago, "why do you and so many others hide your plates". Makes no sense to me when everyone within eyesight can see them.

Internet exposure is much different than on the car physically. I surely don't want a disturbed person knocking on my door invading my privacy..or through the internet..(identity theft come to mind?)
I used to work for 911 and know all the information a person can gain from a plate number, a person's name, current address ...so if you don't cover it up, recommend you start for your own protection when posting on the Internet...

Thanks for the nice comments on my hardtop..
