FXR500

I don't have a padded top, but the bucket caddy with a 5 gallon bucket and the screw top lid is 18". Sorry for the odd angle, but I was holding the tape measure and the iPad.

Amen brother... I've got three black cars and a dark blue (2002 Mustang GT in True Blue), but my wife is on her fourth white car. There's got to be some restraint.

Welcome. What a great looking car. That green just glows in the sunlight. Good luck, and I know you are going to love it.

Beautiful car. My DD is a blue '02 GT, so the new edge will always draw my eye. I'm glad you're showing her the love and care she needed.

Thanks to everyone who responded, this is definitely a warm and supportive community. I've been detailing my cars for a long time, before the Internet and forums like this. I had to learn what I know from experience. I've been a fan of brand M*, but I've been so impressed that I've surpassed the $1K mark before I got my license plates from the dealer. To be honest, I'm more excited to get my PC ( got a tracking number for order #3 today) and get started on my old '87 Turbo Coupe than anything else in the house now. She's black and been under a cover for the last few years. Natch - I'm in one of the big Houston suburbs.

This morning I washed my new Shelby GT500 for the first time. As soon as I got it, I searched the Shelby forums for info on the best detailing products, and that lead me to Adams. I bought a starter kit, and tried it on a couple of my other cars. I immediately made my second order. So, I think I'm hooked. I already have a full shopping cart, and I'm hoping for a sale or daily special. Here are a few pictures of my latest flame. Yes, I'm a glutton for punishment, this is my third black car in the house now. (Don't worry, that old blue towel was just to have a safe place to set my VRT foam down, it never touched the car.)
