I really dig those vents in the side of the hood. And I've seen lots of PT's

Quick quiz: What does PT stand for?
It's good to know that this motor should be reliable because I'd assume the parts are expensive [being an import car]. The last owner had added several chrome customisations like the grille, miror covers, scuff guards, door lock pins and the ventilation portholes long the side. I plan to add a few bits myself like wind deflectors, wheel arch trims, chrome bumber trim and the strip of chrome that extends the lenght of the vehicle across the bottom.

But my main priority is getting a decent sound system, I can't feel comfortable without some heavy bass! Seems the cost of seakers has also fallen since I bought my previous subwoofer/amp so I might as well but a brand new sstem from the head unit upwards.
I sold my old car today so that's £300 cash I have to put towards the sound setup. ^__^

In answer to your quiz, NSP, "PT" stands for Personal Transportation. When I learnt that it destroyed the credibility and coolness I thought the abbreviation had. How mundane it really is! LOL

Thanks for your message, Toni, I won't name "her", in fact I think this car is a "him". My last car was female but this one is more masculine.

We got a completely custom PT once from an auto auction. It had no door handles. All doors opened via remote, and the previous owner also installed a nitrous system with a custom painted tank to match the custom paint on the car.

It doesn't have to stand for Personal Transport! PT could stand for alot of things! :vict

Part Time Cruiser etc.

Personally I prefer to call it the Platinum Cruiser.

If I get a PT Cruiser in the future... It'll be shiny metallic Silver. Just to go with the PT=Platinum idea.

I always think of cars as feminine, but I do see your point. That's a fairly masculine looking vehicle. Still, you should name her Berta. She certainly looks like a Berta to me.

:hitting:

Berta... that's hilarious...
