    Smile just washed and cleaned out the car

    so i washed the car with some REAL car washing stuff and scrubbed off the tape from the cardboard kit (finally) and put some tyre shine on the wheels, put the origonal red dash board back in cause the black one just didnt look right. cleaned out the interior, spent most of the day doing that, car looks 546876587 times better now only thing that kills it is the bumpers but not all of it can be perfect so yea anyways heres sum pics:





    and my cool photoshop skills yeah i know you can still see the bonnet stick and yeah its a pretty shitty/ugly engine but yeah:


    it'll prolly kill you if u saw the way it was before i cleaned it

    can i ask you a question...honestly,

    have you ever driven the car outside of your yard? i know youre 14 and all...but if you can drive it out, why not take it to a cool place somewhere in nz where you can take some bitching pics?

    the car does look clean...way better than the upside down one!

    Re: just washed and cleaned out the car

    nah i dont drive it actually i do if i really need to, but not really, only person who drives this car is my sister and my dad, car has only done 25k since we bought it last year

    oh yeah, there aint really a good place for taking pics around here that doesnt require using heaps of petrol (this car guzzles petrol like a 5 litre holden or something) there is a nice car park across the road with 764765 pot holes, thatd be a good place though that doesnt cost much to get there lol.



    and lets not forget the cool tripod!!

    the 1 i used for the pic up there was actually the stand on a chair coz it just wasnt tall enough in this pic

    thanks the car does look a hell of alot better, also fixed up 2 rust spots that would have caused big problems, theres still one in the floor but ill only fix it if the wof people pick on it.. yeah the rear wiper does come stock but almost pointless as it only wipes about half of the screen

    nah not yet, funny u shud say that though, we just got a mail from LTSA saying we gotta get a rego sooner or later or something, 2nd warning lol. just gotta borrow someones battery so we can take the car to get a wof and see what it fails on the WoF expired 14th of april and rego expired on 14th of jan (day after my b-day) so yeah, basicly not road legal.
