What did you do to your Mark VIII today?

Chit I rolled 85 and 90mph all the way home from Elizabeth town KY today after my daughter soccer tournament. V10 FTMFW
 
Installed the Alternator from Lasers car, went to salvage yard to find another one..they have 1 blue/dark blue 94 with sunroof..I also wanted the trunk lock cover but it was already gone
gonna get a rebuild kit for my Alt or just have someone rebuild it..I need a trunk lock cover to send Jamie..anyone got a spare for sale?

If someone needs dark blue interior piece let me know...seats look great, back dash is ruined, console has wood grain with working lids, steering wheel dash and door panels look good, visors are torn...and I took one of the rubber console bumpers, and I broke the other one..lol
 
Put SuperCoupe rims with Bridgestone Potenzas on and got her some new wiper blades.

Here's some pics

Hey Everyone! Welcome LSC 98 f100. Last week when I drove from Florida back to NC I saw this pearl Mark VIII coming up behind me on the highway. We floated around eachother until just after the Florida/Georgia border and he got off the highway. About a half hour or so I stopped at a rest stop to try to shake off the tired and I had been laying on one of the picknick table benches. Right as I rounded the LF fender of my car, I glanced up and saw an octistar and it was LSC's car. I wish you could have seen my face when I realized what car it was. We stood and talked for a little bit and I told him about joining the forum. We decided we would roll together thru SC. About an hour south of the NC border we parted ways. I'm glad to see you made it here man. The above pics he posted are of both of our cars at a gas station. And hey man, someone here said it, and I don't remember who, but you need a supercharger to hang with a Gen1 :D

We had a few "races" I guess. My car pulled pretty well, but my car is chipped and pretty healthy.
 
That comment was made in the "Sapperfire just kicked my ass" thread regarding mine and LaserSVTs races...
 
Matco just showed up with my new scanner, the tool is supposed to read OBD1/2 and ABS, but the OBD1 cable is not included, it's optional, but...the OBD1 cable and software kit doesn't exist yet....
How is something that does not exist, an Option?
 
awhhhh Sapf, what can I do regain your trust???...I dont use those stupid things... I will be relieved next monday when the guy bangs it out... it is killing me....

How cool is that lsc!!! lol You ran up on one sweet Mark owner!! Welcome to LVC and congratulations on your new baby!!!

Painted my valve cover bolts in preperation of painting the valve covers. Also painted the tensioner to match the supercharger and valve covers and painted the idler for the KB black since it was looking a little rough.
 
MsM8, have you tried dry ice on it yet?

I have so many dents and creases in mine it makes me sick, but almost all of them were in it when I got it...cheapest quote I've gotten so far to fix the dents and repaint was about $3k...so basically, it'll probably never get done :-(
 
seriously ice? it's location would require the force of a glacier to pull it out...dang crease. Im gonna run into chat - hope your in there!

Dry-ice could get some dents out, but probably not effect a crease...and I can't go in chat, I'm banned by iPhone
