    went to Summit this morning and picked up a set of drilled and slotted rear rotors for my...Crown Vic. rear disc brake swap.
    swung by to pick up my rims (again). they loaded them in my truck for me. as I was looking at them the owner walked out and started looking them over, His comment "these ain't right".
    I agreed with him so he unloaded them to be blasted back down to be redone for the forth time...:slap:
    there was some good in this...one of them was perfect...now I know what they will look like when done. he did say he has to redo all of them again to make sure they all come out the same color...:bouncy:

    this is why I start in Feb. for my July trip...LOL

    Sorta tough to get a color to match your car isnt it Frank, your killing us with the suspense but if I know you they will be top notch. Those wheels must be related to the c4 you had such problems with

    Drove my sister to the Dr. yesterday, and it ran very well. I did break a window crank, so will have to dig into my spares to fix it. I wish they were a bit more durable.

    Nice room for the car! Does it get damp at all with any humidity? We had an uninsulated building at work that would rain inside during certain weather conditions.
