Been a while since I could do this..

Post by SSEimatt93 »

Been keeping my eyes open for an SSEi. Found one in Calgary last week. Made the drive yesterday with my neighbor. 2700 took it home with two new sets of tires. :banana:

I simply could not resist cleaning the car up and giving it a nice wax coat last night after all the rain we recently got. Must say I am impressed with the way it looks. Turning into a bit of a picture whore again, just like the old days ;)
I know there is a lot of other members out there who could toss up a few pics of there Bonnevilles to. Lets wake up the your ride forum!

I keep trying, but I get the car clean, and the next morning it's covered in white spots from my infernal cotton wood trees. I only get to keep a clean car in the fall and early spring...I need to get a car cover.
A temporary fix does not exist. It becomes a solution until it needs to be fixed again.
