Nice wheels. Is your serpent looking the wrong way?

Black Beauty looks pristine Steve. I wish I could keep my black paint job on both my cars looking that good.

When Glamorous Terry (my graphics technician) installed the serpents, she went with bi-lateral symmetry. The driver side faces the right way. I can live with it. My Milano is the same way.

Very nice. I like the rims. What type of trunk spoiler is that?

About 25 to 30 cars from dedicated members showed up and here are a few photographs of my car that day.
Despite the rain, those of us that showed up had a great time. The food vender started serving lunch around 11:00, with the wine sales starting soon after that. We were fortunate to have a large covered pavillion with tables underneath and everyone bunched up together.
Thanks everyone,

Hi V6Junky,
The car wasn't always that low but for some reason the B&G Springs settled over a period of time which necessitated another Toe Alignment. In spirited driving it rubs a bit when the body rolls but in regular driving, no rubs.

Thought that might be the case. I get cronic rubbing on mine but am about to change that next month hopefully once I'm on holiday and can leave the car at the shop. Will end up with a 25mm drop over the current 40+ I have now.
