[56k DIE] A photo retrospective....

[TGO]

I've been digging through all my old pictures, looking for notable things to enter into my shrine for # 609.

Alot have things have happened since i joined this site in 2000. Here's pics of my car along the way....and some other memorable moments too!

6/2/01 - The day i brought her home:

The 6Qts mark on the engine cover was a giant LOL! I left it there for a while too!

Fall 03 - Installed Elky Mesh and Tinted tails:

One of my favorite shots of my car - coming back from Pete Tampas' place in Vermont where Shaggy and I were the first (atleast AFAIK) to install the FSVT Front brakes on our cars. You can see them peeking through the wheel there. What a crazy weekend that was!

From left to right: J-lab, Chris (Shaggy), Micah, and moi

Pwned by the blizzard that winter:

Installed PIAA ION Fogs and HIDS in march 03:

Why I loved silver frost...

That's an awesome collection of CEG history, man. Nice pics.

July 4 2003, Installed H&R Springs and ST200 struts (i did the suspension a few months before actually) and new wheels...the ones pascal sent me on a couple years search for!

Had the transmission built earlier that spring.

The Calendar Pic:

At that point, my car was pretty much how i wanted it to look.

After that, the car had another hit and run, which destroyed both my headlights...which was a blessing in disguise, cause they were starting to haze up...and i installed my stereo. A few other "dings" that i let go longer than i ever would have in the past...and i pretty much knew my love affair was coming to an end. I didn't have the fire burning under my @$$ for this car anymore.

Last pics I took before I sold her, October 06 or thereabouts:

6 years, 50+k miles, thousands of dollars and my blood, sweat and tears - then, she was gone....just like that

She'll eventually be back to her glory.

Man, i have a whole stack of pictures from SZ 02. I wish I had a scanner. I would post them.

 

[TGO]

i've got video footage of JVT rolling around drunk on the ground in the parking lot of the hotel drunk off his @$$.

And in car footage of a few laps around gingerman.

I may need a better host for those though...dunno what photobucket lets you upload for free.


And I wanted to head to SZ this year...but at this point it doesn't look like that's gonna happen either...

 

[Pre98]

I may need a better host for those though.

Shoot the vids my way at Schnerlz-at-gmail-dot-com. I'll host them for a little while so people can see.

Dude, I'm seriously gonna cry. I swear I was just going through all of my old pics of the Zetec and the few I have of the 3L SE, but mainly of the friends I've made being a part of CEG......
