For years I have been wanting to get the Shark in front of the big Christmas Tree in the shopping center across from my hood but the weather was never good,
but this year a much different story, I got up early, looked out and it was dry and the sun was out!
So at the risk of waking my family, (didn't care) I opened the garage, fired up the ride and cruised over to the shopping mall, not a car on the street anywhere, perfect.
I did a sweeping you turn across the lanes and went up the handicap easement, inbetween the light Post & no parking sign, pedestrian crossing area, right in front of the tree!
I felt like Clark in Christmas Vaca when he spots the Almighty family Christmas tree!
So I took some pics, and just as I was finishing PD rolled by, looked at me smiled gave a knod and Kept on rolling!!
So Merry Christmas!
Yea Yea I know the Bra, it's an 80's thing, but I know most of you were either still riding a trike or in your dads sack! Laughing

Bras are always better on the floor.

Very cool on the pic, or what I like to call:

When I was in college I had a bra on my car and it ruined the paint. Left marks at the edges. When I got the car repainted in 1994 I greatly resisted the urge to put the bra back on. Then eventually I grew out of my bad taste and never cared again. You might want to remove that car bra to protect your fresh paint job. Honestly, that particular bra fits so poorly it is compounding the issues with rubbing paint. I'd get it off immediately.

Oh nice, another gray back in the group, always good!
well that is the original paint and the bra is not on 7/24 at all, and I
have good knowledge on paint maintenance and chemicals my garage
is a detail shop, you would never know I have had a bra on the car.
It's a rare gig, but I had to do it for that pic, an 80's thing, you would
know being in college at that point, it was Bra's and louvers!
Cheers to the old guys! Cheers

I've got a couple years to the big "40" where I am obliged to have a mid-life crisis and buy a Corvette or new truck. That's what I told my wife anyway. Very Happy

Definitely an 80's thing.

If there's one guy who can rock the bra and suffer no paint damage it's Rich. He's the detail master!

Thumbs up
