Just turned over 207k so I decided to clean her up as a treat for both of us.

Well I took some pics anyways, took them before I went to work, and a few after today. I really like the way they turned out Took this awhile ago when my fog light went out, had to take the headlight out to reach them Attachment DeletedI only use my iPhone camera, for whatever reason it turns out better than one could expect!

Looks good! Not bad for a fruit phone, lol.
You can go in through the wheel well to replace fog lamp bulbs also.

There's never enough space between my car and another, I've got a crease in my back passenger door because of it! And because this is a tread about the last picture you took of your car, here's a link to a few of my latest pics, They are from my just washed and waxed thread if you already viewed it

Fresh detail. Washed, clayed, polished with Meguiars 205 & 105, sealed with two coats of Menzerna Power Lock (amazing sealant, highly recommend), and Collinite 476 on the hood since I got too tired to do the whole car ha! Took over 12 hours since I've never done a detail of this magnitude before. Had to resize the image because imgur doesn't like 18MP pictures... My headlights are horrible. I've tried cleaning them up but my passenger side won't even aim vertically, it'll go up just a bit and then fall down. Does anyone know how to fix that or where I can get a new set of headlamps for cheap? My brothers Aurora has perfect headlights but I'm pretty sure he'd notice if I swapped them...

James026- Your headlights dont look that bad. IF you're handy with some sand paper and a buffer you can sand the crud off and polish them clear again. But if you're having adjustment problems the adjuster is probably broken and you'll need a replacement. Ebay and local salvage yards are you cheaper options. Some dealers can still get the headlights brand new if you wanna go that route. Rockauto.com has 1 new one remaining that is a Recondition

Well if you can't find any in Carroll, u should try and make the trip to Sioux city. There are a lot of yards. I don't know how many have 2gs cus I'm always looking for classics. If you do make it to Sioux city, we could meet up sometime if I'm not working.

It would be cool if we could set up an ACNA meet for those who live in the Midwest sometime. but if things actually work out Sioux City is about 2 hours I think from where I live, I Sit an hour between Omaha and Des Moines so if your willing to drive to Omaha it makes the trip more affordable for me with the gas prices the way they are. heres a pic of my car just because Attachment Deleted

Turns out I'm kinda stupid sometimes, Sioux City is just a little farther than Omaha so there's no sense to have you drive all the way over there to save me a 1/4 of a gallon of fuel. Sergeant bluff looks like a good place location wise, I don't know if it has any scrapyards and I'm in desperate need of a new air dam/ air deflector because my current one was dragging on the ground for a good 120 miles. (oops!) also I'm probably bringing my cousin along ( my aurora is much better than his Pontiac, he loves it and I might let him drive her ) I did however find what I was looking for in Carroll today, only bought some scratch remover stuff and some wash and wax because I wasn't carrying around that much money on me, still have to look at quants, I'll probably call down there tomorrow sorry for the wait for a reply btw

Took a few pics today, pay no attention to the date, its off by 4 days. You can notice the rust that has started behind the rear wheel. Was bored and had some plastidip left lol, i still have to peel the centers out of a few of the letters. This was taken a few days earlier.
