Yes, you heard right. After 4 years of false promises and unending hesitation, I am FINALLY posting a picture of my poor, battered Bonnie. You have been warned :P

Scroll down, if you dare...

I voted "Don't ever post pictures of this wreck again..."






















But I was just kidding. Doesn't look that awful. Little paint and a day with a wrench set, and it'll be bright, shiny, and straight...

Hehe, yes, I still have the old bird, Don, lol And with the original engine 172,000 miles this morning, and still running. I suppose she runs well, but I estimate my Bonnie requires at least $1500 worth of repairs, as it stands.

So, not just a simple 'wrench job', Gonneville

Unfortunately, I have no money to fix her. But she keeps on chugging along, so I keep driving her, praying I'll get the money I need to fix her before she gives up the ghost on me. She'* my old lady, lol...

Oh, and the color WAS Purple Pearl, fuel (or, as I used to call it, 'Metallic Eggplant', hehe)



... and, I suppose I'll snap some more pictures of her sometime soon, if you guys REALLY want me to. It'll be like a little freak show, lol :P
