Default Beautiful day; Washed the baby =] (56K Warning)

So it was gorgeous today for the first time in a few weeks so what better to do than wash the baby . No waxing/detailing but prolly will once it gets even warmer out and more towards the summer. Just walked around the car and snapped some quick pics, nothing special. On with em .

Hehe I want to keep the motor when/if I get a swap. Prolly find a shell for cheap and re-build the D and put it in there as an all motor (strict NYS emission laws are t3h gay) and see what kinda power I can get.

Car could definitely use hours of detailing including a clay bar. I just don't have the patience lol.

I intended on buying a motor above all things first but I don't know if I want to do suspension first or motor first. Either way, I want both haha.
