cleaned up a bit

The snow/salt/road grime gets to me more than anything, I hate not having a clean car. So I took advantage of my spare time and washed, clay-barred, and waxed the svx oh, and polished the headlight lenses..

Re: cleaned up a bit

Unfortunately mine is still under a thick coating of salt and crud. The weather is supposed to be above freezing for a couple of days so maybe I'll give it a quick spray down with the pressure washer.

Re: cleaned up a bit

What ticks me off is the amount of sand and salt they use around here. One mm of snow and the sanders are out in full force. I try not to drive my SVX in this crap ( I use my wife's legacy as much as possible) but there are days I have to use it. I think I may start storing it over the winter starting next year.

Max probably isn't used to seeing USDM taillights, as he is in Paraguay.

No, i mean, it seems that the filter inside the tail have been retired, the light pattern looks squarish and bigger in the pics, maybe i am wrong, please see the link.
