464 Gets Washed, 195 Shows Up

Posted on Sunday, June 21st, 2009 at 9:36 am

464 is such a clean Galant.  I’ve known there are a few flaws here and there, especially when it comes to that paint job, but this was the first time I’d given the car a thorough hand washing and I came across a lot of little things that I don’t like.  Down the road, this car will get a full respray in the proper factory color, but for now, I’m content to have a six-footer.

464 was involved in some sort of accident long before I bought it.  The core support is champagne in color, as is the underside of the hood.  Someone did the repairs I did to 195 but they did them professionally and I’m thankful.  I just can’t figure why they painted just about the entire car save the passenger door, which is still factory Kensington Grey.  It’s orange peel all over and the front end has still got a lot of chips from rocks and whatnot.  Regardless, I like how it looks when it’s all clean.  Here’s some pictures from yesterday after the carwash.

195 wanted to get in on the action since we had Vanessa’s pocket Nikon instead of the Blackberry for pictures this time around…

    Wow, I didn't realize you loved the GVR4's so :)

    I'm terrible, but I don't remember all the badge numbers to the ones I've had.

    This is #907

    Once you get one, you're sort of hooked, ya know?

    Bummer, dude. That last one ended up selling for $3000. Keep your eyes peeled for a roller. You could swap the running gear from your 1G into it!
