The best picture opportunities usually come when you least expect it...

Just walking to or from the car, there it is...

Excellent picture... AND.. your car is NICE !

Thanks for all the compliments! I'll try to post more pics when I get the chance. Lol, my car doesn't get out all that much and when it does there's a good chance that it's dirty. All the stars aligned on Sunday.
