New 08 Adrenalin owner

Charlie they only have what is on the site but being an SVT owner never but a SVT badge on a non-SVT vehicle it just ain't right.

I hear ya. It's right up there with putting a saleen banner across a windshield or ralley stripes on a normal GT.

Awww you guys... just when I was thinking of adding the little Cobra snake to my STA....

; ~ )
 












I was at a car show and this guy had a V-6 mustang with SVT badges and Snakes on the fenders. It was pathetic.
 












I am developing a Adrenalin logo for my truck, similiar to the one I made for my Lightning back in 1994.
It will be a one of a kind. These are similiar to Ford and not just a decal overlay.

Are you planning on doing more than one?
 






Nice try Charlie but he said it will be a one of a kind :)
 






I am not sure,
They are hard to make but well worth it.
here is the one I made for the Lightning.

Well once I finish my design, I will snap a photo to show you.
The biggest obsticle is I have to find another front emblem that will be my starting point.

Great! I'm looking forward to seeing the pictures!

Hey John,

Am having a lazy, boring Sat afternoon... Decided to scoll though the threads to look at some pictures... I love this picture of your two red beasts. It'll be some nice to see my STA clean and shiny again... probably about mid-May before it'll be warm enough to wash it in my yard, and wax it. Man, this cold snap is getting tiresome.

Just got back from the self-serve spray wash... got the "first layer" off... between sand and road salt the STA was awfully grimey... YUCK... On the plus side, I can see white paint again... shame there's a light skim of ice all over it. It's -18C here in New Brunsick (Canada) today. Left the STA out in the sun... not that it'll do much good. I think it's too cold to melt the ice in my garage.

At least it's not just me! :D

I brought my STA to the car wash this morning and as the guys were towel drying the truck was freezing up! :eek: It has since thawed out and looks pretty good considering.

I got my registration today so I put on the license plates and took down the temporary plate. I also swapped out the carpet Adrenalin floor mats for the rubber set that came with my truck. I figured I would use the rubber ones during the winter and put the carpet Adrenalin mats back in when the weather gets nice.

Hey Charlie,

Glad you're "legal" now. Man, I hate to bring up the subject, but... those yellow temp dealer plates really clash with the red... Your new NJ plates should look much nicer on your STA. Hehehehe.

I left mine sit in the sun for a bit. Amazing, even as cold as it is, the ice has all but disappeared. I just had to get the road grunge off it. YUCK.

My Adrenalin mats are still there... just laid my new rubber mats on over top of the carpet mats for now. I was thinking the little rubber nubbies will stick into the Adrenalin mats carpet texture better than into the rubber floor itself. Oh well. it'll keep some of the dirt and salt of the Adrenalin mats. Got my rubber FORD mats at my local Canadain Tire store for $34.95 + tax. Never priced getting them at the dealer.

My Uncle Mike warned me the Pirellis weren't gonna be any good in snow, but I've had no problems so far. He had 'em on an F-150 FX2and scared the crap out of himself driving in Ontario. It would have been nice to kept these nice tires and rims out of the salt... and use stell rims and real winter tires. We'll see how it goes.

This afternoon I was a bit bored so I stopped by the store my wife manages, and she put me right to work hauling away empty cardborad boxes to the dumpster for her. I did two good sized loads. Remember this phrase "YES, my Queen." It comes in handy on occasion. Hehehehe. If Momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy. Hahahaha.

TTYL,

Foggy
 






Hello Foggy,
It will be awhile before we thaw out here also.
I probably visit the car wash twice as much most people.;)

As for now the trucks are covered in the garage, it was too cold to do anything here today. hovering around 15 degrees, though it was below zero this morning.

I too, bought some clear rubber mats that I can lay over the stockers to keep them clean from snow and mud.. I don't get many back seat riders now so the Adrenalin stays clean.

When I built my garage I pitched the floor toward the door so any access snow melts and drains away. I have a diesel heater that warms the garage up in about 10 minutes.

I built a 24' x 20 garage and both trucks fit fine. I actually parallel park the one truck then pull the other along side. I have been looking at floor mats for the garage, but I may just paint the floor instead due to the price.
 






I just did a quick photoshop to get rid of the emblems. I like the cleaner look more and more.

This site was an excellent find! I bought a new Colorado Red AWD V8 about two weeks ago, and this photoshop is exactly what I have been thinking about... very cool. Much cleaner looking as I expected it to be.

Now if someone would just do a supercharger for one!

Welcome Kyson,

How do you like your STA? Regarding the supercharger, I have emailed a number of companies and to date have not received a response.
