Spring's here!

I haven't posted much in the last few months, but now with Old Man Winter fading away I'm ready to get some work done on my girl!

Decided to give her a much needed bath last night. Looks pretty good but there is a lot of grime down low that will NOT come off.

Yeah, I think there were 2 weekends that we couldn't drive our Stangs this past winter.
FLORIDA RULES! Vert OR coupe!

Car looks great! Love the rims, honestly I feel like the newer S197 wheels look better on the previous gen bodystyle lol.

I would need to see pics of the grime you were talking about, but chances are it's probably bugs and road tar/tire rubber right? I used some bug/tar remover and a little clay bar down by the wheel wells and side skirts and it cleaned everything up pretty nicely.

Have never owned a vert but I love my coupe and can't complain :)

Having lived in Fort Myers, you sir are correct. Only thing that sucked was the monsoons that last for about 10 minutes. Don't want to get caught outside in those!

I agree on the wheels looking better on the older S197's. I used to have the stock 17's and stock tires and when it was time to replace the tires I didn't want too because it would have been putting fresh tires on some beat wheels. So, I found the 19" take offs all ready to go for a decent price.

Lower body grim is probably tar by majority. I will tackle it again soon and work on that while I'm washing the undercarriage. Having car lifts is a beautiful thing.
