Re: Whoa, whose is THIS!!!!???? - 10/06/05 12:54 PM
Hmm I always wanted a 95 with a v6... 
Re: Whoa, whose is THIS!!!!???? - 10/06/05 01:41 PM

Re: Whoa, whose is THIS!!!!???? - 10/06/05 01:41 PM

Re: Whoa, whose is THIS!!!!???? - 10/06/05 03:37 PM
Someone buy it! Trust me, a '95 V-6 with GCs is the most fun EVAR. And that one doesn't look like crap!

Geez, that is a really good price. I got my 95 for $1900 and it was in almost perfect shape, but this one blows mine away. Somone on this site had better buy that thing.

Custom SVT Carbon Fiber Front Bumper - from description....

Re: Whoa, whose is THIS!!!!???? - 10/06/05 05:09 PM

Yes, i would assume he has one of the Micah carbon fiber pre98 SVT front bumpers.
Re: Whoa, whose is THIS!!!!???? - 10/06/05 05:32 PM
Yes it is. I'm sure the car wasn't driven like a grandma but the body pieces are worth quite a bit if they are repaired.
Re: Whoa, whose is THIS!!!!???? - 10/06/05 06:00 PM
I'm almost positive this picture was in the 2004 Calendar. Can anyone confirm?

yeah i dunno, i just remember the pics being posted here a while ago and how low it was.
Re: Whoa, whose is THIS!!!!???? - 10/06/05 10:53 PM
no the two cars are very similar, but i dont believe its the same car. I knwo Paul Swift was around a lot along time ago, and was in on the first CF front bumper GB with myself and a select others.
And to address the clear corner, he was trying to fit the bumper to the car, and supposedly he was leaning/pressing against the light/side so hard, the amber lense sepereated from the clear lense, and he removed it.
so sad to see it go. and mine will be gone soon as well. What happened to stolon? he had one of the original bumpers as well. As did a guy over on FCO, and 95 MID, which is now owned by KingpinSVT's sister down here in FL last i knew, but was missing the bumper.

yea , his pic in on the Jan 04 calendar, was closer and a lil more sideways. i was just looking at it.
But heres a high res of when his first rolled it out of the paint booth. looks awesome.
Re: Whoa, whose is THIS!!!!???? - 10/06/05 11:53 PM
Actually in all of my experience with paul he drove it very carefully. I can honestly say he has never ripped on it in my presence. His mom has an 03 cobra and he has a crotch rocket, so he has freely admitted his contour is more of a cruiser.
PS the paint is damn good and it is a nice car, somebody buy it and get yourself a good deal.

Re: Whoa, whose is THIS!!!!???? - 10/07/05 01:09 AM
He's probably out of school now, has gotten himself a good job and wants to upgrade, but its always sad when an "old schooler" gets rid of his ride 
Re: Whoa, whose is THIS!!!!???? - 10/07/05 01:11 AM
She got a deal on a sweet car!

Re: "Whoa, whose is THIS!!!!???? - 10/07/05 05:52 AM
Dude, lemme know. I will drive down with ya to get it if your gf doesn't want to. I could deal with a road trip to MI. LOL!
Re: Whoa, whose is THIS!!!!???? - 10/12/05 08:47 PM
Woah! It's been a long time since I've been on the boards. The car had to be sold because I will be graduating in December, I have an 02 Ranger 4x4 now, as well as a 99 CBRF4. So both of those keep me busy; offroadin, and lots of Ridin!
Ha, anyhow, last night I drove it down to Cleveland to meet with Shana, and hand the keys over to her. WOW was it tough to see that thing drive away. In all honesty, my eyes had teared up. 5 years of proud ownership, and lots of work, and dedication was driving away right in front of me. What matters to me the most is knowing its going to a good Contour Loving home. Shana is a great girl, and I know she'll take care of it. I mean come on, HOW many girls drive sticks anyways, let alone a contour thats a manual. :-)
I wish her and her bf the best, and hope they enjoy it as much as I have.
In reply to the one clear corner/one not. I was fitting the bumper on prior to paint, and the drivers side corner lense had popped off. So I figured, why not try to remove the reflector?? I just never got around to doing the other side.
As far as the 'ghetto' comments go, come on now, lets be adults. If its not your car, you might as well keep your rude comments to yourself. In my opinion this car was one of the best looking, modified, and well maintained Pre-98 on the entire site. Sorry others may not agree. But overall, the car was fantastic from the date of purchase all the way to handing over the keys.
So, farewell to the CEG as far as not being a Contour owner, but I'll still visit the site every so often. I'll miss all the CEG meets though, thats for sure. SE.MI chapter guys were the best!! Take care everyone, its been a pleasure!
