Default My 2000 Pewter SS

Finally got it back from the shop, apparently in order to fix my squeaking problem they had to disconnect the e brake and clean all the rust and leave the e brake disconnected? Does not matter since i have never used it. But i got it washed, waxed and then mother chrome polish on the rims, came out ******* beautiful.
