...for the first time since Wagonfest 2K9 when Robert did it. Wink

And she looked so nice, I took a (crappy cell phone) pic.

So I washed it today... Clean_pic_may_20_11

I have run it through the car wash a couple times since that 'fest, but this is the first time I have dried it, cleaned the wheels and doorjambs and shined up the tires in almost 2 years!

She cleans up ok.

I just gotta do a full detail soon. Even though it looks nice, it still feels like 400 grit when you run your hand over it! affraid

Bill you should be ashamed of yourself.The B body should always come first and at least kept
cleaner than 1 hand car wash evry other year.I will gladly come up there and take over full
ownership with the promise that the car will be washed at least every other week.LOL once the
Subie is back together,please detail the "Marshmellow".

Bill you have a unigue wagon there and all of your mods are very tasteful and probably a little
too conservative for some folks but I really like it a lot.This wagon was not originally a woodie
was it?

White WB4, my second favorite.

Is that tire rubber under coating protecting the lower quarter?

Hey Mike you beat me to it as I was going to ask the same question!Old eyes here but sure looks like a clean underside to be NH car.And Bill do you get much cast off spray in the
winter considering your proximity to the highway?Better scrub the rubber off before the
Subie gets jealous.

It's nothing impressive. Car is pretty much stock, just mufflers and sewer pipe intake. And Holy Moly, it weighed in at 5072 lbs with driver!!!! Zoinks! But in the 60/70 degree weather, it was running 15.4's and 15.5's at 86mph. And in the eliminations, I had to get on the brakes twice in what felt like 15.2 runs. I had a 15.3 in it last fall.

So, nothing to write home about. Smile

Very nice! The storms that moved through the KC area today washed mine for me. Amazing what driving rain and heavy winds can do to knock the dirt off a car. Sure didn't do much for my yard though.
