My TurboII yesterday

Hey guys,

I got up really early yesterday while searching for a new job and decided to stop by a local run. I rarely drive this road but it was really fun. I had a good time and shot some pictures along the way. I absolutely love this car and driving it is just bliss for me. Hope you guys enjoy!

-Allen G.

I must say those wheels are exactly like what i have been searching for. It always looks good when you see an old school car rocking the kinda old school wheels you could have bought the day you picked the car up off the lot.

Glad it went to someone that is enjoying it...

car is completely stock except for the old school Racing Beat manual boost controller and boost gauge setup that mounts right above the right knee. I don't want it adjusted but its running at the stock boost right now where its going to stay. lol.

But its just stock except for the Ronal wheels painted the same paint code as the car, Noble White.

I use a Nikon D70 DSLR right now for pictures. Thanks for the compliments on them and I will have a lot more in time to come. I drove the mountain runs w/ it over the past couple of days and its a dream car. It drives so good and I just cruised. I love it.

I washed it today and detailed the interior to the fullest w/ products. Looks like a show room car as of right now. haha. Smells like a new car to. lol.

I like them. Maybe he isn't the best photographer but the scenery and car are sweet.
