It's not your typical "chick" car! 8-) I've loved cars and Mustangs ever since I can remember! When I was 3 I had a red pedal car that I would wash all the time, LOL!

It was a freudian (spelling) figemntaholic! :D

Wow b-babe that back end of the Stang is definitely not stock. I really like what you did with it! As mindflipper posted, mark and I masked out the plate by either painting over it or erasing it.

Unfortunately my X isn't getting a wash probably until after we get back. It has outdoor duty this week :( For those of you wondering what that means it is just the vehicle that doesn't get garaged. We shift around about every week so one car doesn't always have to sit outside in the elements. Interior shots will be taken when it's clean again.

Sounds like next years' summer project has been decided ~ build another stall for the garage ;)

Which means it's not clean now, right? Proves my point, boilerbabe - it's a guy thing. Even Len90's interior isn't clean, so Boilerdude's messy car is par for the course. It's a genetic thing: he's a guy, he can't keep his car clean. His DNA won't allow it. :wink: :lol:

"Liking to keep it clean" and "keeping it clean" are two different things, boilerbabe... :wink: :lol:

Sorry B-babe things have been crazy. I will post pics of my mustang tomorrow, I have added some Disney embellishments since my last photos so I need to take fresh ones. BTW I keep the inside of my car immaculate inside and out at all times :D

I like to keep my car clean which means that there is no dirt on the floor and no dust on the dash. Car got torn apart yesterday for the vaccum. It's crazy how dirt gets in places you least expect. Dusting and interior cleaning is next up followed by the exterior when it gets a garage. I completely back b-babe in wanting a clean car but there are moments when I just don't have the time to do what I want. I'm actually embarrassed by how dirty the exterior is right now!

Mindflipper, I am exactly like b-babe. It just sometimes I don't have the time to keep my X as clean as I want it to be. It will never be disgustingly dirty but there are times when it will not be spotless. She'll be 4 years old on the 19th when we leave for WDW. I'll definitely be bringing it back a birthday gift!

I don't think we've really done much to cars in our house since people kept stealing our Disney antenna toppers and my stepdad keeping the Disney license plate cover. Whenever I get mine, I will probably have something small.

I miss having my plate from Test Track on the front. But my current car didn't come with a front plate holder and the few times I have had a plate on the front it ends up coming off ~ once in our turnaround's snowbank and once in a car wash :( So....I keep my plate here at home, so it won't get lost! :D

That it too bad your antenna topper gets stolen :( I wonder if its Disney fans trying to save a few bucks or dumb people just trying to be a butt head who steal it.

Never got your copy of the Guy Code, did ya? :wink: Guys back up guys. That's the code. :roll:

Okay, I might as well confess - I am more like you and Boilerbabe: I do not keep my car dirty/trashy. I actually keep a plastic bag in my car to collect any garbage, which I throw away once a week with garbage collection. It might not be OCD spotless, but it's clean. But as far as guys go, that is not the norm. From what I have seen, most guys are more like Boilerdude.

Haha sorry but I am in the group of men that are obsessed with their vehicles and thus keep it clean. I am proud to say that I was able to get 30-45 minutes of free time today to do the interior right. Now I just need to get the exterior taken care of. Oh before I forget, here are the shots of the interior decorations.

These three guys ride up front with me in the cup holders:

These little ones are in the back of the car hanging from the roof:

Aww, that's too cute that you have little Disney co-pilots all the time Len :D I am curious though, do Mickey and Donald mind holding your drinks when you have them?! ;)
