Baby's First Bath Pic

Ok, not the human kind of baby, but I got the F1 out under her own power for the first time in 4 years of work, and gave her a bath. Still a few odds and ends to tie up and finish, but also discovered she's running too hot too so that gets priority. Anyway, here she is, and two more pics in my gallery too

Texan2004, yep, that's my 65 Fastback too. It's actually my daily driver right now.

Brian_B, the bath was yesterday. I pulled it into my normal garage and closed the door (garage has a drain in it) to wash the dust off. There's no snow, but it was freakin' cold out yesterday. I have a garage behind the house in the basement where the truck has been getting worked on, but no drain so the maiden voyage was a short spin to the front of the house. My parents live just a couple counties east of you in Doniphan MO, and got four or five inches of snow. We got nothing but the cold (3 degrees above Saturday morning).
