new paint job, wheels... June 28, 2006, 04:08:44 PM WOW! All I try to do is update you people on what I have been up to with my TurboCoupes lately and I have a crazy adventure! Let me start off by saying that TurboCoupes are no good when you ge them in the mud!! :hick: To get the updates out of the way... I got my 88 TC repainted, got it back about two weeks ago, just didnt have the time to take pictures. I also mounted my Cobra R wheels on it. I bought two new tires for the back, 245-45s, because I trashed two of them in a construction site earlier this year. I am pleased with how it turned out. I also put "2.3" fender badges on it, you can see them in the pictures. Next up hopefully soon will be two Dynomax bullit lers with dual stainless steel 2.5" tailpipes. I also just nabbed a Canadian gauge cluster that goes up to 120 the other day. I am going to have soem gauge faces made up and hopefully it will turn out pretty cool. That will be basically it for this car. All the rest of my focus is on my 83! :D I recently purchased a complete Motorsport front mount intercooler for it! It is pretty awsome. I sanded it down and painted it the other day, just ripping it all apart to get all the rest of my performance done that I did not complete over the winter. Lets just hope that it is done in time for Cat Jam! I have allot to do in preparation! I can always just bring my 88 instead :DNow, about the mud! As you all know, I am always tryign to find a nice place to take pictures of my cars. Well I decided that maybe I could drive it out onto the farm a little ways and get some good photos. :D pah! HECK! I can take the fresh new gaswell road! YEAH RIGHT! I made it abotu 1/2 mile back this dirt gaswell road and find a "good" place to stop and take some pictures. Well, as soon as I pull off the road a few feet, It sinks, and just spins. So wether I like it or not, this is the spot I am taking pictures basically. I take som pics, then get back in and really get it dirty tyrign to get it out to NO avail... So I go back and get the farm truck :D and pulled it out! THAT TRUCK IS A BEAST! HAHA Hope you like the pictures, just remember, TurboCoupes do NOT go in the mud! :hick:Frank M. Quote Selected

It was not going anywhere!! haha**Aerobird Motorsports How'd it get chrome trim around the windows? **What Chuck said! It does not have chrome around the windows. Although the rubber like piece around the back side windows is sorta py so it appears to be whitish? I need some shoe polish on it I guess.**nirvanagod If that black TC makes an apperance at Cat Jam... I might be leaving with it!!!!! **Looks like I am not going to make it this year guys.
