Wife wanted her own car

Postby Gameover » Sun May 17, 2015 7:36 pm

So my wife raced on the new track last night and had some fun. So as i was sitting at work today i recieved a text from her stating she would like her own car. I said cool what kind of car would you like? Of course she didnt know. She said she would have to look at some. So i said go downstairs and look, there is like 70+ cars down there lol. So she sent a picture of a black and white carrera mustang she liked and also said she wanted me to find her a pink one too. So i went to micheals and got some pink paint and turned the white stripes pink. Painted the driver the roll bar and some pink piping on the seats.

She's in love with it. She wants to drive it but I want paint to cure over night. Her next car is the new blue and white carrera camaro she says.

If I still had one of the Fly "Thelma & Louise" drivers I would send it to you! Neat repaint, love the interior.....could I interest you in a low mileage Fly Venturi in PINK (hint, hint, nudge, nudge) :think: ?

You must have remembered the educational video that said
"When momma aint hapyy, aint nobody happy"

Good for her Game.
My wife liked Jeff Gordon and all of his cars no matter what brand lol
She settled on the Dupont Scaley, and dangnif it didnt have the fastest stock motor I have ever gotten.
Lots of fun laps though.
Well done
Bob
