And here are some camera phone pics my mom took as she and my buddy picked the Mongoose up to put her in storage....
The reflection off the white, and the Oregon rain made for some chitty pics, BUT, they took a bunch with the digital camera, so after mom gets off work she's going to e-mail them to me.

Basically erased 94k miles off of her appearance. Next comes suspension, HRE's, interior, and drivetrain.

Looks like you did the same thing to your third brake light that I did!

I had to go back and look, and it just looks really dark thanks to all the black around it. With the grill, I toyed with many idea's, from stock, to chrome billet with classic emblems, to you name it. Finally decided on that. Can't wait to see the pics from the digicam since I haven't seen it in person yet!

, I couldn't even find a decent 6 spd car, let alone one with t-tops! So I found the SS, with factory white leather, and fell in love. As far as fill-in's or badges.....I'm pretty sure they just put the SS emblems back on the rear, and other than that, I haven't thought about anything else on there at all.
