Default #983 Arrived in my Garage Last Night

I got my new toy last night and Jay put together one great looking ride. It was delivered yesterday and I had to pull in garage quickly as it was raining. Snow this morning so no chance to take it out but I have a good coat of wax on it now. You can see some pics in my photo album but do not have any since it has been home. I want to get it out in the sun and take some pics. These things sound awesome and I love the way it shakes the house. Great job Jay!!!!

Congratulations. Since its snowing, may I suggest going into your garage, popping open a lawn chair and a bottle of beer, gazing at the car for a few hours.

Brian is the magic wrench... but yes that car sparked the spectra blues here. Glad it got there and took all the damn snow with it. We have not had a flake since it left. This car was a milestone for us, the last Ford Racing 392 installed (Ford discontinued the Sportsman 351 block ages ago and they have just worked through the inventory):

I had no idea about the 392. I guess that makes mine a bit of a classic as well, not to mention the 4 - 48 IDAs on top!

Nope. My car has always had 4 - 48 IDAs on top.

Love that Spectra Blue! Mine is Indigo blue, I love it but wish they had spectra available when I got mine last year.

That is a nice look. I like the ceramic exhaust as well. Mine is Avis Blue with white, which is a beautiful color combination, but doesn't have the pop the Spectra has.

Thanks for all the compliments on the color. Jay was convinced this was the color for me and when he sent pictures I had to have. Now that it has been delivered I can't believe how it shines it looks like a piece of jewelry sitting in my garage.

Jay, Brian, and the gang do fantastic work (with a little help from Ron now and then!).

Your BDR looks stunning! Good luck with it.
