Those Chrome wheels really look good with the black roadster and the SRT6 wheel decals. I knew I should have bought them from you.....

A year and $15,000 later she is show quality beauty. I have tons of "before" pictures but doubt anyone really wants me to post those . . .

I'm not sure many here have entered the 100,000 mile club but I'm pleased to announce that today I have.
I have had my Crossfire over 8 years and have had no major problems at all
I have driven 83,000 miles and have only changed the fuel pump ,serpentine belt and CPS.
Other than that just regular maintenance which includes brakes , Oil & filter changes using only fleece filters and Mobil 1 0W40 full synthetic oil

Pulled it out of the garage to replace the garage door opener motor assembly.

Brought it home from the storage unit to get it ready for the laps of The Kentucky Speedway this Saturday. The auto door lock and the key fob have not been working so I read the post on how to reprogram the key fob. Anyone know why it would have lost it's programming in the first place? Worked like a charm plus I programmed it to unlock or lock everything with one push. Once again the forum comes thru. Of course after that it was time for an afternoon cruise, and it was a beautiful day.

Pulled the siren out to see about putting in new batteries, I think it's toast.

Gorgeous! Do you know if flood damage was from separated rear window; New Jersey hurricane damage or any combination of factors??

Wow, what a nice looking black SRT roadster up above.....Today, already this morning, I saved my rocker panel from disaster when a tire guy wanted to lift the car from a rail type lift....I thought I remembered reading that it was a No-No here on the forum and stopped him just in time. Then on the way home, through The Villages, an Overmedicated, drooling Ninety year old almost changed lanes into the side of my SRT...at least he heard the weak horn. I suppose it is time look into relocating the horn to make it louder. I don't care for close calls. Peace yall.

Replaced my cabin air filter today and it was a breeze (see what I did there?) thanks to the forum "How to" from a few years back.
Want to do the cup holder/storage bin swap prior to the Fall Dragon.

You wouldn't happen to have a link? I love Areospace products, especially for tonneau covers, and engine bay plastics, which repels dust very well. I've used up most of my 1 gallon surplus.
