Default Finally got my Intimidator home...

Well I made it up to VA and back in one piece. It was a long trip but worth it.

The guy I bought the car from is actually in the Navy and he was over in Spain. His wife was there and had pulled the car around to the front of the house for us when we got there. When we walked up to the car, my stomach dropped. The hood has a bunch of scratches on it from one of their boxers jumping up on the hood. He got the car in a couple other places as well. Mechanically and interior wise the car is perfect. I'm taking it to a shop tomorrow to see what needs to be done for the paint work. I don't think it will be too bad.

First thing is new tires, which I'm ordering this week. Everything else is in really good shape. So minus the paint damage by claws I was able to bring this Intimidator home for under $10k and it only had 59k miles on it when I left their house. I've pulled a few of the decals the previous owner had on it because I want a cleaner look. I'm gonna leave the RCR decals though because I think they're a nice touch. It also has dual Magnaflows so that was a nice suprise.

Tires, paint, tint are the highest priorities right now. Since I've had my shoulder surgery I can't hand wash the car so here's just a couple quick, dirty pics for you...

Looks great! Odd to see an Intimidator edition that mimics the 2002 Dale Earnhardt edition.

Congrats on the new ride. Not often that you hear about scratches from a dog on the hood of the car. Hope you can heal quickly so you can give her the hand wash she deserves.
