Meet Ripley. She's got some miles on her, but she's been well taken care of. I just needed to do a few things to bring her up to snuff (ok, more than a few things, but remember...I have issues ) and she's ready to go...







That's her sister, Elle, in the background...







And then there's Tallula, who's making a believer out of my Pontiac lovin' step-father ...





Everybody's Honda happy

^^^Welcome, Ripley!!! Glad you're staying in the Honda fold. Now, where's that S2000 you've been looking for (or is it an NSX???)

Looks good Phil. What polish did you use on the truck? I haven't found anything that shows off a white car; maybe there isn't any thing.

Thanks

Dave, the best I've found for any color, but especially black, is Griot's Best of Show wax: http://www.griotsgarage.com/product/car+ca...Arrivals&page=1

It's never let me down
thanks; I presume you used an orbital.

Not on any of the cars I've had lately. Luckily, they were all in fairly good condition already and nothing more than a little shoulder action was necessary for the desired results. However, it sure would make it easier and quicker. I guess I just like getting my hands dirty.

Or as numerous girlfriends have told me..."you have your damn hands on that car more than me!!!"

Glad things worked out, AND your shoulders were up to the task. With all that you do, report back to me on the condition of your shoulders in about 10 years.
