Default Marilyn waits her turn

Even while waiting for "new shoes" Marilyn manages to stand out! 67,000 miles and she still stops traffic.

Regards, Jim

Marilyn was the first car in the US to have the Eibach Prokit installed. She settled down with a 1 1/16" drop in front and 1 3/16" in the back.
It really settled the ride as well as stopped the feathering with a good (finally!) 4 wheel alignment. I now get over 30k on a set of Nitto's. Far better than the 11k I got on the oem B-stones.
Regards, Jim

Le Mans turns heads. It blows my mind how many people stare at my car.

Yes, we got some stuff, but a little unhappy with the tough location, background, lighting, crowds, etc.
I am editing now and some will be up on the club site soon.
Regards, Jim

Thanks for your good wishes!
It is sooooo hard to shoot a Z and come up w/bad stuff. Sure makes an average photographer look good doesn't it?
