Doespike's "OMG!!! I finally got an ITR!!!!" thread. CW FTW!
Most of yoo already know about heR/seen heR but I figure she deserves an official announcement on the best ITR site evaR!
First off, I gotta say, Chris (eluam) really was great in making this deal happen. Not only did he save me from driving all the way to VA beach (saves 440 miles round trip), but he had no one to drive up with him to the meet so had to fly home. He also threw in extras he never mentioned like BNIB checkered floor mats (from the bunch Len found months ago) and new Benen front and rear loops. Also included are Spoon front/rear tower braces, the CW stock wheels, J's intake, JDM rear seats, JDM door panels (USDM in kaa now), BNIB OEM front pads, fluids, other odds n ends OEM new parts.
Anyhoo, on with pixors.....here is 98-0309
Taking delivery....Thanksgiving meet was awesome btw
Ready to roll...
First night home, she gets snow.
One night last week it was unseasonably warm up here (near 70)...so I stayed up to almost midnight giving heR a heavy cleaning. She still needs a finer detail jorb and polish/wax. Yeah, I had to get up at 7 am the next morn....
Finally cleared enough space to tuck heR in the garage. I really wasn't concerned about theft since I got heR home late at night in miserable weather and she was hidden behind the house, out of sight of the street. I doubt anyone in Buffalo knows she exists....still, feels good to have heR in there.
Oh yeah....she's wingless now Cleaned off the old weatherstrip on the wing and hatch....just have to find some new stuff and remount it.
In one way I'm kinda glad its winter and I can take it easy and tinker with heR in the garage til April
I may still get heR out hunting though...

Yeah, it cleaned up and smoothed out perfectly. Scraped and cleaned the mounting surface of the wing too. I think it came out better than I expected. I can tie a deer to that wing now

Thanks Jon, I appreciate that mang Yeah, it was tough waiting patinently to be able to pick one up finally. So worth it I hope. I just can't wait to really flex heR at AutoX and track. I've only been able to put 188 miles on heR, then winter really set in....oye.
