An Update With A New Photo





Another photo to help show the size of the truck. It's got new silicon body mounts that are 3 inches taller than stock. I'm 6' 6" and I still have to use the running boards to get up into the truck. It is really nice being above the traffic so you can see what is going on up ahead.

It's Here! The Big Surprise. Every race car needs a tow vehicle...



A 2005 Ford F-250 XLT Super Duty, Super Cab, four wheel drive. It has the full tow commander package and can tow up to 12,500 LBS. I'll get more photos up later. Oh, the Mustang is back in the garage...

Not the surprise, but some progress

The car has been outside for over a year now. For the last six months it has been under some scrub trees and looked like this:




I soaked it with the foam cannon.


Then I just used the pressure washer. No hand washing just touchless with the washer.





I believe that the crud was easy to spray off because under all that crud the car had been polished with Zanio.

I like Zaino and have used it since I got the GT back in 2008, but I'm going to give Turtle Wax Ice a try. I can get it locally so if I run out of something I can just run down to the store and get more.

The Mustang is going back into the garage and won't see the outside much so I'm sure the Turtle Wax will do the job.

I'll post again this Saturday or Sunday about the surprise!
