Hello everyone.

Just wanted to drop an interesting story off. I'm a native Jerseyan. Today, I was at the local eatery (White Rose, Roselle NJ, best greasy food around), with a friend and noticed that what seemed to be a friggin condor had made a deposit on my freshly Zaino'd beauty. Luckily though, said deposit had been made right on the side grill thingee. So, in the parking lot, I raise the bonnet (he wanted to see if we could remove the part and do a thorough cleaning of the part). I turn around and look in the window, and see 6 guys (ya know, the truck stop type) leaning with their noses up against the window. One brave soul had the nerve to come out and make some inquiries. (fast? fun? small?, ya know, the usual). Anyway, this turned out to be like a 20 minute ordeal, me showing off my beauty, and everyone loving it. Let some total strangers sit in her, to see how roomy she really is, showed off my pilo intake, lots of fun.

Just wanted to drop the story off. I know there's been plenty of threads on stories like this, but, eh, posting's cheap!

OH, and the question, anyone know where I can get a desktop sized picture of this?

thanks!

I'd email this guy mailto:hammer@pt.lu. He goes by Ed and posts over on roadfly Ed's Pic Post

Think that Gabe got his shot from him.
