Crummy weather today-so I "played dress-up" with My Doll

Screwing around today, I put the on bra I've only used once on Ruby. She doesn't look too bad in lingerie! It will come off, but I guarantee you I'm going to use it for the next DE. I could have avoided a couple of nasty chips at Texas Motor Speedway if it had been on. Here are the proverbial gratuitious pics:

gorgeous Ed! I love the chrome and brushed stainless steel targa bar. Simply stunning.

Man I love those wheels! The polished Targa bar is different for a Carrera isn't it? I saw some light brown leather 993 sport seats on e-bay that would look killer in your car.

(nice house!)

Thanks guys! I'm looking for seats right now, kind of leaning toward Recaro Speeds, but I'll look at Ebay.

Ed,

Beautiful car! Mine is similar ('74 in non-Porsche metallic red with stainless Targa bar). Your car is stunning!

Ed,

Excellent color! Consider SRD's. Price is right and you feel like you're sitting IN your car rather than ON it. Nice side bolsters for your butt and back. Only downside is that the cloth seems to attract lint. If you went with tan, I doubt you'd notice.

I second the SRD's. Fantastic seat. I'm amazed everytime I sit in my car how great they feel and fantastic on the track. Saves 30lbs over stock and simple to install--a 30 min job.

I do like the SRD's, I assumed that the "Speed" is the new model replacing them. I'm actually going to go with black seats as part of my interior upgrade. I'm going black with the trim as cork. I've put one of my new RS door panels on, and it looks good in black.

Ed,
What size tires do you have, they look very nice and well-proportioned in the wheel wells,

I've got 8" wheels in the rear and 7" in the front. Bridgestone S03's all around, 225's in the rear, 205's up front.
