Update on my 88 xr7.

A good buff and wax on the doors back should make the paint fade less obvious.
It looks great, though. It reminds me of my '88 XR7.

I've only had that car since October. And wrecked it in December obviously I wanted to fix. I don't want a new car they are made like shiznit anymore. If that would have happened in a new car that car woudl have been way way WAY worse than mine ever was.

car looks great. hope you enjoy it when you do get to drive it.
remember it easier to fix them, than to find them after they been crushed.

V6 = juvenile delinquency!

Alright I had a couple minutes to spare  before work.
so here are the pictures.
mind you they HAVE NOT washed the rest of the car so it is VERY DUSTY.
and thats why it looks like such a difference.
Also they put a grey grille on the car everyones opinion!
The car is going in for pinstriping today.
I will go take pictures tomorrow of that.









I hated that color when I first bought my cougar but over the last year its starting to grow on me.. Looks great, that shop did a nice job

My car has currently sat in that shop for weeks now and they have not buffed out that paint or washed the rest of the car yet as I put in my original post. You will see in pictures tomorrow that the fade is not bad at all. Oh and I just got the call the car is done! I may be picking it up tomorrow... Just have to make a good decision since I'm technically not allowed to drive it but I may have someone follow me home since I cannot afford another tow.
Yeah I do plan to keep her foever unless it gets into another serious wreck then she's going to junk yard.


NOOO
serious wreak
and I want it!
