This is a very long story, that started in June of '02 and ended in December '02. During that time BLU became known to me, I bought it, and had it morphed into a much better car. This transformation was much more than planned and luckily much of the activities around BLU were captured in pictures. I chose from over 225 pictures to create this story, and if they were all worth 1000 words it would really be long. I didn't use them all and I didn't write many, but using the webmaster privilege I offer the story of BLU.
Out of concern for our members I offer the abridged version here.
Here's Blu as I first saw it:
And here's Blu as I brought it home:
Definitely an improvement, it runs like a top, and is a good companion to Jacque's Ghia. Occasionally we even hear this squeaky shock sound in the garage at night.
THE END
If your interested in what happened in between, please continue to the full story, but first some notes on the long story:
Organizing this many pictures into some kind of flow has been challenging, Just posting the pics chronologically does not show the before & after affect, which is such a big part of the of Blu's story. Hence, I've tried to tell & show the story by general area of work in chronological order. But even that didn't work always so I divided the segments as I think of them & did what seemed appropriate.
The story is broken into chapters to provide some organization, but more important, to keep the page load times reasonable...
Chapter 1. First Look & Buying
