Pics of my 2002 ACR today...........

[D.K.]

Some pics of my 2002 Graphite/Silver ACR taken today. Can the So Cal guy's tell exactly where they were taken? The rear angle will show the red overlay's that Bluebatmobile sells. Andrew is a nice guy and and I'm quite satisfied with the finished result. Takes the Amber color out of the Graphite rearend.

This is after most of the finish prepping I have been doing. I'm finally to the Pinnacle Souveran finishing coats. Only (2) have been layed down. Jon gave me a good finish with which to start with. I didn't even have to use my Menzerna Polishes with this finish. After claying, I went straight to machine applied Klasse AIO, then Pinnacle Souveran, 2 layers seasoned 1 week apart cut w/ pinnacle Crystal Mist. The last 2 pic's are of my former award winning Black Z06 which was featured on AutoGeeks international Website. Enjoy.......

Yes and yes! It was my pleasure to meet you. I'm looking forward to the next outing too. I can't make it to Willow Springs this weekend. But I will be up in Orange county though. My daughter has a volleyball tournament at the Anaheim Sports center. She is on the 15-1 team at Epic Volleyball club. They are in Gold in the 16's age division. The team is awesome and I'm a huge fan. I get up more for her tournaments than my own. LOL

Your car was outstanding. You, me and Kurt are like Brothers. We are a menace to the So Cal area!

Jason,

I miss you my friend. How is your wife and lil baby? I had so much fun that night. You run a great Hotel and the people there are very friendly. And good luck at your car show. Your car kicks A$$ bro.
It's funny going across the USA. The state that the Viper gets the least attention is So Cal.(but still get loads of it, in a casual way) Every where else in the U.S. that ACR was like a Rock star was driving it. It was unbelievable.

If I ever need some sort of ego boost I'm gonna hop in the Viper and do a road trip back across the USA. Let's see...I can visit the Texas guy's, then you, then Jon and his dad and hopefully more Viper guy's across the USA!!!

99 RT/10 - Awe man! It is one of the largest shows in Birmingham! It is an annual event held this coming Feb 10,11,12. At the Birmingham-Jefferson Civic Center
Three day indoor event.
My car will be sitting along side an 05 Ford GT ... also Blue/Silver
My brother's are also entering their cars...
2002 Mustang GT - Customized
2002 ZL1 Camaro

If you have the time to come up and would like a room just shoot me a PM. My hotel is about 16 miles from the BJCC. This building accomodates up to 300-350 custom cars for this show! It is worth the price of admission if you know what I mean... it is about $15 to get it per person.

Wife and child are both great! I will post pics of the show when finished! I am looking forward to it!!! I have got the weekend off for it.

The family and I are making the trip across the US this coming May to WA (state). Going to visit her family. Gonna be driving the family car of course. I have been given the entire month off and we are planning on having a blast! If we get close to CA I will let you know, but right now have no clue what we want to see on the way back yet. There are SO many options!

[V10SpeedLuvr]

Now that is one CLEAN ACR. Very nice

 

[HLN A55]

Wow, what shine.

I remember seeing your Z for sale at about the same time that I was selling mine-what did you end up getting for it if you don't mind me asking?

 

[Andrew/USPWR]

BEAUTIFUL car, I love that color.

HLN,

Your reflectivity is great! Well done. No color but black can give you that level of mirror reflection, but it comes with a price, as we both know. Your correct, it is a tremendous amount of work initially. However, if you know how to stay on top of it, it's easy to maintain. Most ppl don't understand that.

I sold the 03 Z05 for $34,900 and it sold w/in 2 weeks. Basically on the strength of it's level of condition(superior int/ext. than new). The hard work paid off in sweat equity.
Here's a few more pics of my Z06. Did u sell yours too?
