Default Talk about Butt Ugly!!!
After a week of sand and chemicals being on the roads, this is what my daily driver look liked! I was almost ashamed to drive it.





Now after some careful massaging, it looks a lot better!!! Now I got to get to work on the winter projects for the '75.





(I hope I don't get kicked out of the Corvette brotherhood for treating my car like this. Please forgive me!)

My '07 Montery Red didn't look quite that bad from all the weather earlier this week out here, but it wasn't that far behind. All nice and sparkling now...till tomorrow night when more rain is due in

Gotta say that I don't envy you. I like your car better without the dirtWhen I go to Tahoe and Reno during the winter, I rent an SUV from National and give it back to them that way.
