The Misfit and me

Im sure that a lot of you have already seen some of these pics on the .org, but I thought it would be fun to organize them i a bit of a different way.

This is the story of my friend the Misfit and I and our adventures together

I first me the Misfit in October '07.

A little rough around the edges, and not the greatest sense of style,

But I saw potential
The first step was losing baggage from the past that would just slow us down

Then, we got to know each other

With a little help, Misfit cleaned up his act

Christmas came early for the Misfit

And soon he was feeling better than ever.

Dispite a few problems

We weathered the storm

I introduced Misfit to some new friends:

Winter time was fun,

Although Misfit wasn't always prepared for the season

Springtime came,

and we decided that being sloppy was not acceptable, especially in the suspension department

A little bit of flash:

The Misfit has mail!:

And something straight from Europe:

Off to the races we went!

Our first HPDS

Showing off the new shoes:

And some new lights; more Euro goodness:

We took a day trip out to the country:

Unfortunately, Misfit has fallen ill as of late, mostly due to a weak drivetrain. Thankfully that will be remedied in the spring with help from this

I've always admired your Neon man, especially now with the newer upgrades!

Would love to see a set of Euro tails on it and I think it would be perfect.

Thumbs up to another CDN Neon'er!

Haha yeah, Thanks Tyler. I would say that unless you're willing to lay the car up for a few days and have access to air tools, the prothanes aren't going to be easy to do.

I had to get brand new lateral link bolts because the ones I took out were nowhere near worth re-installing.

Pink valve cover is booo. But, if you can make it work, go for it.
