Thanks, that would be great.

My "Intimidator" was bought from Avon Auto Group in Mass SIGHT UN-seen. I gave a little over 8k for it after all was said and done, and that included shipping. It had 83,000 miles on it, and I was the third owner. Upon arrival, the first thing I noticed were *hail dents* in the hood and trunk lid. The driver seat did not adjust, the windshield washer was inop, and several weeks later, the traction control took a dump. I since had a K&N Air intake system installed, a set of Dyno-Max mufflers with 2.25 pipes and the original exhaust tips. Also, I got new NASCAR raised lettered tires and rims. Those, I got from Tire Rack. I had extensive body work done, a new hood, and NOW the "Intimidator" looks like it' supposed to look.!

OK, maybe I should clarify this: my "Intimidator" is the Dale Earnhardt Signature Series Monte Carlo SS High Sport model. Number 1591 of 3333 made

We're not trying to be jerks or **** about it. The only reason the phrasing issue came up is because the 2004 version is the one the factory called the "Intimidator edition". You don't have to use the really long name you posted in the previous post. "2002 Dale Sr edition" or something like that will suffice.

Sorry if it sounded like we were giving you a hard time.

I have some "dress-up" plans for my Dale Sr Monte, I'm thinking about a "GOODWRENCH" magnetic sign for the quarter panels. THOSE will only be used during Car Shows. A BIG #3 would be *overkill* in MY opinion. any thoughts, pro or con..?

The easiest way is to upload them to photobucket. Then once you've done that you copy the "direct link" to the pic. When you're ready to post them, click on the yellow mountiain looking icon and the paste the direct link in the box that pops up.
