bamsho Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 I still love the look of your car, and Bruce's old one. 8 years, doesnt seem that long, huh. tss 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjhpadi Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 You know, that is still my favorite color....kinda wish my SHO was that color. tss 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brucelinc Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Todd, your MKS is awesome. Looks great and runs great, too!! I should have kept my MKS!!! This is not nearly as much fun with a stock Continental: tss 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tss Posted May 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 You have to get a LOT of looks with that at the strip!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Photos, but here is the comparison: Grill/front end changes were done in 2014. Holding up perfectly. Clear Bra is awesome.

brucelinc Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Those perma chrome wheels of yours have sure stayed nice, especially considering the Michigan winters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tss Posted May 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 FUNNY......Mitch and I were just talking about that. Besides the Tune, perhaps the best thing I have done for the car was the Permachromes. Five salty Michigan winters have had no effect on them. SIMPLE to keep clean. Wish our Buick had them instead of the Factory Chrome. To say they dont hold up as well is an understatement.

mjhpadi Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 Almost for got about your Permachrome wheels, they still look great. Makes me wish I had done the Permachrome on mine instead of being undecided about it. But did do some detailing on the SHO today...Todd shamed me into it. But ran out of steam, so will be finishing tomorrow. I'm finding it is hard to keep up the energy level on 600 calories a day.... tss 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brucelinc Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 600 Calories a day? Congratulations, Mark, for your dedication to a healthy life. I probably have 600 calories in my mid-morning snack. tss 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tss Posted May 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 Took a photo this morning at the gym of the front end. Looks just like above, but 3 years later...LOL Like I said, holding up amazingly. No issues at all. brucelinc and stealbluesho 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tss Posted May 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 **DONT KNOW WHY IT LOOKS MORE "PURPLE" ON THE RIGHT.... TRUST ME....

stealbluesho Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 My SHO is steelblue... it's color appearance varies quite a bit depending on the light. tss 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjhpadi Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 Well Todd, I imagine you have probably been called many things, but photographer was probably not one of the things! LOL tss 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjhpadi Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 600 Calories a day? Congratulations, Mark, for your dedication to a healthy life. I probably have 600 calories in my mid-morning snack. Bruce, it's not that I wouldn't like to eat more but since surgery about 2.5 -3 oz. of food is all I can eat at one time. That fills me up for several hours, hence the small amount of caloric intake, but not a problem, I am feeling great, and hopefully will be a lot lighter in the future! brucelinc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tss Posted May 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 I do actually think bpd is right - I must have some kind of setting in the wrong position......or it is lighting like stealblue suggested.......or I suck taking pictures as Mark said. LOL!!!!!! If my car was turning purple I would admit it........and get rid of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
