Greetings picked up my 97 Ti today! Overall an 8.5 out of 10. Check engine light from an error code of o2 sensor needing to be fixed.
I am located in Western NC but travel a lot to GSO. Getting stationed in Germany so I think I need to fix all my error codes before I get there or my car is stuck in customs.
Would appreciate any feedback from any folks stationed in Germany. Looking forward to some fun over there with it! |  |  | | 09-24-2010, 10:47 PM | #2 | | Senior Member Join Date: Mar 2010 Location: Tulsa, OK Posts: 252 |

Roger will do! Want to give her a good wash and wax. She is a rather base model but has not been hit by the racer boy brigade, ricers, or the like. I just plan on getting her tip top before I head out to Germany.
Tulsa OK! I built the T - Mobile located directly across from Tinker AFB. I also started the T Mobile thats out in Norman in the new Target / KOHLS shopping center until the other project superintendent showed up. I recall the ice storms of '07. Anywhoot back to working for Uncle Same after the construction slow down. | | | | | 09-25-2010, 03:02 AM | #4 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2010 Location: Lancaster PA Posts: 274 |

Well the paint has some issues and I have done paint and body work in the past. For being a 13 year old car the paint does look great. There are some scratches on the other side of the car that I can notice. I plan on using some Scratch X, Carnuba or Synthetic wax, and clay bar to make it great. I used back to black on the trim and it works ok for a few days. I plan on painting some of the trim black.
Main focus is getting my car ready for Germany. I will use cheezy wheels with hub caps for winter tires since I am headed to the Fatherland in the winter time. | | | | |
