I just picked it up from the paint shop yesterday from having the custom strips painted on. They are clear coated over so it’s smooth as glass to the touch. I feel it really makes it an eye catcher now. I take it to cars shows often.

Real sharp, George! I like it.

You did stuff to the engine too?

A little, fully built motor with all forged internals, custom cams, heads, headers, Whipple super charger pushing 18psi and a long list of other things. Currently I have a very mild street tune putting down 567HP/579TQ at the wheels. If the truck was setup for drag racing and a race tune it's a 10sec capable Lightning. Below is a pic of the engine bay.

Dang, George. Too fast for my blood. :bowdown:

The stripes really change the look. Nice addition George.

For those of you that are car guys/gals just listening to the engine will make you smile. I got to hear it when George came to listen to my system.

Very nice paint job, shows in the reflections....

Now we need a mega burnout picture!!!

I like the edge detail on the stripes. The stuff you can’t see sounds good while the underhood looks mighty fine. High marks George. Or like we used to say in the old days, Waaaaaay Fat.

No wonder there's a carbon fibre shortage - you've got most of the worlds supply in your engine compartment!

Just kidding - very clean and distinctive without being ostentacious. Sublime comes to mind.

Thanks for the comments! It's been one of my passons since 2002 when I purchase the Lightning. We have a strong SVT Lightning community and have gatherings oftne through the year. I'm currently organizing one in Orlando, FL for March 08. We expect 50+ Lightnings at that event. I think it'll be the 6th one in that location.

Cherian · Dec 11, 2007

Some of the SVTs I have owned over the years.

Joey_V · Dec 11, 2007

Cher,

Though you've owned some SVTs, I still like your current Volvo R. What can I say? It's a niice ride...

Audioseduction · Dec 11, 2007

Cherian, nice choice of SVT's! Looks like you took care of them very well! I love the Cobra hood there! That's why I have one on my SVT Lightning. :rocker:

tonyc · Dec 11, 2007

SVT rules! I'm really not burning to trade my 03 Terminator in on one of the new Shelbys...I can't believe they are asking 10-20K over list!

Cherian · Dec 11, 2007

When I was a lot younger I got in a lot of trouble with the Cobra. Let me just say I got a ticket for drag racing and speeding. The speed was 156. OUCH!!! It took a few trips to court and a good lawyer to get it off of my record.

Reverb2009 · Dec 11, 2007

Nice lighting!

There not SVT's, but here are my cars.

My '68 Stang and '05 Dodge Magnum.

twich54 · Dec 11, 2007

"BOW TIES" RULE !!!!!

LOL !!!!
