Re:5 Years old and just as loved as that first day 2 Years, 6 Months ago  
Thanks Col,

Yeah pretty close to twins... Mine was the last Black '04 (Limited, and possibly overall) in the NSW Lot (as far as I'm aware, due to the '05's on their way) and was quite a story to get hold of, and if it wasn't for my fast-thinking salesman jumping in real fast after a Chrysler computer system crash, I wouldn't have got it at all!! and would possibly have had a Blue or Red one - which would have really put a dampener on my "Gangster" status haha

Those hub caps were sadly only on for the GORCruise - lost one on the first day before lunch stop so wasn't very impressed and took a slight edge off the look of my car for the trip - as long as everyone took photos from the drivers side only that was ok (although I did stuff up and take one from the other side at one point haha)
- Have been running some 'other' hubcaps, but about to change back to my standard 16's that came on it
(Until I work up a couple more small 'mods' for my 'next look')

Cheers mate

Those hubcaps wanna go off on there own I had one fall off a few times but always heard it and found it. But one time it fell of on Henry Lawson drive and I whatched it in the mirror as it rolled off the road and did a full circle and came back on the road and got run over by a Hyundai. Luckily Kieth had a spare for sale, Then a few weeks ago it fell off again and this time I have no idea where it went off to. Maybe it found a better place. Had standard plastic ones back on for awhile and i'm currently one third of the way into a new look aswell. Pics will probably be posted on Monday(after canton beach)

Congratulations on spending 5 years with the love of your life. Some marriages dont even last that long. Jelly Bean was 5 years old when I got her (4 months ago) and she wasn't as loved sadly. I'm saving up to get the paintwork touched up and a few little dents taken out - but I love her all the same (after all I could do with an overhaul myself tee hee)

Cheers everyone!

Hope you enjoyed the little '5 years in photos' story...

I can't believe it's really been 5 years - seems like only about 3 or 4 tops!!

Hey RT - yeah I remember you picked yours up just in time for the Christmas party that year... Was great to see another newbie to the Club and check out another new PT and the newer model to mine...

I'm looking forward to many more years of Cruising ahead - bring on SA'11 !!

Hope to see you all much sooner than that tho hahaha

Safe and Happy Cruising
Dean
