I need help

[valentinoamoro]

I just had some contractors finish painting my garage the same color as my Stang - yellow and black. The yellow is an almost perfect match. I think this might a step off the deep end :-)

Once the paint dries, I will mount my FRPP Ford Racing tin poster, order some car themed artwork (ex:Steve McQueen with Eleanor) and upload some snaps.

Thats dedication - meanwhile the beast is currently at the Ford dealer getting a few body panels aligned, LED's installed and backup camera fixed. Ford meanwhile provided me with this loaner - to be fair, I was given the option of driving a 300C Chrysler as well (with leather), but this is more fun in Seattle.

Do you have a picture?

Do you have a picture?

Not yet. Waiting for a bright day + finishing up the garage artwork before I post, otherwise wont show well.

Biggest tragedy of it all is the Stang wont fit by a few inches. Next year I will have to widen the door/frame. Those damn garages were made for horses back in the day I guess (or narrower cars!).

That sucks.

Probably built for a Prius considering you are on the same coast ;)

Here's it's the Subarus and old Volvo wagons The status conscious dropped the Priuses a long time ago and moved onto the Tesla (which wont fit either!!).

On the mini :(

On the mini :(

lol. I feel ya. Dont get me wrong, its no Stang but its really a go-kart and I've been enjoying driving it in the neighborhood streets. It takes those round-a-bouts like a roller coaster and makes those narrow streets seem like a broad racetrack. Thats probably the only place I see this car being fun though.

That kind of looks like Magnolia - or maybe Queen Anne?

My vote is West Seattle.

You think?

I used to live in a neighborhood in Magnolia (about 40 years ago now) that very much had that "late 30s/early 40s" vibe in the construction techniques - especially the semi-sunken garages.

Brings back memories....

I love Magnolia - we were super close to buying there. I used to live in Fremont for 7 years (before that Belltown) but moved as we wanted more space and it started getting commercialized.

Now we're near the UW (exact location not specified in case the Camaro5 guys come over and vandalize my ride) but I'm in the Laurelhurst/Ravenna area . LOVE it

Could've been much worse. Mini is a fun little car.

my good buddy has a cooper S, loves that little thing. Of course its probably a lot more zippy than that base you got.
