Cool Spirit of FORD

Well I just wanted to post a photo of the four great Lightning colors. A big thank you to Lightning Kid, PFA and 2000 Silver Bullet for helping out. A special thank you to Ford Motor Company for letting us pose under the banner.

Thanks again everyone. The photos will be at Zing.com.

Very nice! I noticed none of the L's had front license plates. Was that just for the pic? A question: does the L come with the license plate already installed or is it installed at " make ready"? Thanks

Gilbert,
The front plate holder is installed by your dealer...tell him/her no! I have mine in the garage since here in Arizona we only need the rear plate...

I did not get to the dealer in time to keep him from installing the hideous front plate, instead I ended up pulling it off the bumper leaving 2 1/4 almost 1/2" holes. Which will cost aproximately 200 to fill and repaint.

***TWO THUMBS UP*** Three if I had them.

I love the pic!!

I also didn't allow my dealer to install the front plate. Told him I wouldn't take delivery of a drilled into L. He just nicely made me aware I was breaking Ohio law then let me have my way.

Hey BABolt
Good job posting the pics. I gotta learn how to make the pics big enough when I post them on zing. I scan a photo that I have and download it to the zing sight, but they are not very big pics. Can you give me any ideas on what I'm doing wrong or need to change? Thanks!!!!
