Default Spring Pics!

I cleaned my car up for the year this weekend and figured it be a great day for a spring shoot. I borrowed a fancy camera from work and hit Lincoln for some good shots. Let me know what you think.

Very nice! I am a little partial to silver myself. CETA was nicely done. Just need to finish blacking out the side markers.

Do you have 16" wheels in the front and 17s in the rear or have I lost my mind?

Nope, you've still got your mind. Not being a WS6 it jsut came with 16s. The tires on them suck for traction, and I didn't really have it in the budget to get a set of aftermarkets so I picked up a couple used WS6 rims for the rear and keep Drag Radials on them. leave them onmost of the summer, but occasionally swap the 16s back on for highway driving.

Seemed like a good idea at the time, but now I want black rims and have 6 to get rid of instead of 4.

Thanks, I was hoping those would turn out better. getting that damn building and a car in a picture is a sob!

Shot them all with a Nikon D70s. I'm a news reporter so I have easy access to cameras.

Third pics the first in mud.

And believe me, I didn't plan it. Just drove by a park and thought that would make a decent pic. I was riding the brake the entire time I drove through there to keep it clean, lol.
