Subject: [s-cars] Blackbird Avant update

So, the SR71 Avant finally showed Friday evening courtesy of Tom n Jerry/Deliverance Auto & Canine transport service.  Don't ask.
Basically it's all good.  158k, $2200 and the lady spent $100 on a new key for me (with a light that works... at least for now) and; a receipt for $350 she spent just prior to transport for new coolant and T connector and oil change..
Car runs great.  Needs TLC and some matching wheels. + a journey to the edge of the slippery slope.  Anyone need one or two 16" avus wheels?
Has some surface rust that needs to be sanded off and at least primed for now.
Would make a great MaacoAvant but I'm leaning towards some kind of crazy 3M wrappage.
FWIW I found the new oem RF lock transmitter at GAP for $63... and miracle of miracle, it worked!

There should be a contest to predict what will break first.

Coupla thoughtlessness's...

Break first?

Scoff - simple.

>>>ALLISON'S PATIENCE<<<

Funny on the rust issues, when I saw the pics it was uncanny that the RF lower fender and front rocker had them two circles of bare galvanized - IDENTICAL to my urSbitch.  Go figure.

Hapster...  Bologna already installed his upside down pink triangle sticker, the lesbionic his is.

BTW Maphoney...  "Blackbird" is unfort already taken - tho, ala RS71 in a Porsche twist.  Stay tooned to Excellence Mag, me 934 bit's finally gettin pub'd stat and with the 935 RS71 Blackbird schtoory to follow.  Woot - NC here I come again (Cody/Wiley/Jason/et al stay tooned).

It's 'slightly' cooler / more fitting of ze namesake, and slightly more JNR... evidenced herewithin (that's said burgundy 934 and oh the Yellowbird from der //Fest last summer btw):

So, your original KrylonAvant might be more appropo.  Or why not just go full out w/ the Oscar Meyer Weiner Mobile motif?  Only fitting, really...
