Wasn't going to WOW either, but looks like I am now... I gotta see this thing in person. You've changed this plain white guy's perspective on Donks
That's because we all thought it was any giant rimmed hooptie.
Car just drove home from the west side on its own and made it all the way home lol. Got her up to 98mph on the EOE and she felt strong as it was 60%ish throttle and she wanted to keep pulling hard. I was gonna hammer down on her, but she starting leaning towards the rich side on the AFR. The engine builder said not to get on it if she was rich the first couple hundred miles or until tuned whatever comes first.
The fold with the reflection from underneath.

Think my sending unit might be sticking. I put gas the day I brought it home the first time cause it was reading empty. Only took 14 gallons and the tank holds around 20 gallons iirc. Drove it home Friday and when I left the west side it showed 1/2 tank. When I pulled into my garage the warning light came on for low fuel. Actually showed 0 on digi dash. Took it to gas station about a hour ago, could only get 10 gallons in it. Gas gauge moved to like 1/8th tank. Drove a mile and got home it was showing empty and 0 again. Went into digi dash settings to make sure the fuel input settings didn’t some way get reset. Nope, they are fine. So it’s gotta be the sending unit.
While I was out in the garage, I set up the digi dash to show me important shit and did the same on the Holley screen.

I remember them old school hvac knobs back in the day
Not mine, just picked mine up from the west side and took it to detailer in Melrose Park. I’m pretty sure I know who’s car your talking about though
Going where, WOW or Ace Detailing in Melrose?
There is a 75 Vert at Ace right now that could be mistaken for my car outside of it being a Vert
Yup, they are doing all the big rim cars now a days. Wont be doing mine though, I'm going somewhere else.
We got a decent lineup at WOW. We got 2 Donks, 2 Chevy Pickups, Box Chevy and if Joe shows up before 6pm we will have a Regal.
God does my paint need to be polished. Seeing it under those lights
Bouncing around shops since November has done a number on my paint.

Gav'sPurpleZ can let you know if something like a spray wax could help fill in those scratches some? For some quick help at the show.
Saw the video and pics on IG. Looking like a nice line up for sure!

I don't think any spray product will help 'fill' marring.
It's the unfortunate process of waiting to polish and protect fresh paint.
I'm sure it looks better than most cars there
