Default Clean clean clean(with pics)

After the pro-am yesterday(shot 73, non-green hitting dog! ) we had a helluva storm. Worst I've seen in a LONG time. Of course, the vette was caught out in it. Got her cleaned up this afternoon, after mowing the yard and getting it cleaned up. She wasn't too bad, but anytime it's dirty, I get this feeling like something isn't right. Now I feel better, so, on to the pics!




Yeah I know I'm a pic ho........but who doesn't like pics of vettes?
Have a great weekend everybody!

Nope, just taped everything off really well when I re-painted it last year. Krylon hi-temp.

Last I heard they moved to Chicago to be near a clinic that was going to try some new and different treatments on the boy. Haven't heard how it is going for them. Which reminds me, I need to give them a call and see how it's going.

Thanks Andy. Not quite in your league, but working on it.
How many Q-tips does it take to get to the center of a clean C5? The world may never know!
