Detailing an old Tempo is like grooming a dead poodle. :D

Nice job though.

Ah yes, brings back some memories of my old topaz, great job, and wheres all the rust? Looks like it is in great condition
In way better condition than mine, departed, left us in early August of last year :mellow: . It was only 283000kms old, so sad how i couldn't be with it until it reached 300 000km, but its in a better place now **cries, and hugs focus**

Awww.. I miss my topaz...

You are fawked showing us pics of a stock Tempo. Why bother? Go put some spinners on it and that will make my day. :lol:

Gooooo Steelies!!! :lol:

deep.

Remember when TEAL was the new colour.... I can remeber there being thousands of teal cars driving around.... Now it's copper.

I miss my old topazs too............ lol and I had 3 of them

This reminds of the saying "It is pretty hard to polish s**t"

anyone wanna photoshop spinners on it, maybe when we get some plain steelies for the winter this year we will get some spinner hubcaps :lol:

Our's are polycast wheels, steel coated in rubber and plastic B)

It's weird to see just about everyone had a tempo our topaz at one time :D some were junk some were cool and reliable like this one, this thing is tuffer then bricks,can't kill it. Probably more reliabale then any focus ever built :P I just wish this one was a v6 5 speed

You should, get some plinners(plastic spinners) , I saw some guy yorkton with em on his little golf and I nearly s**t myself laughing so hard.

oh my friends got a 93 tempo GL . he loves it to, we plan to put a civic spoiler on and do it up A-Team style. hehe it will be great!.

Anyhow nice clean up job! I just recently cleaning my focus, I just vaced and used armorial or how ever the heck u spell it. but not quite as clean as urs. Mines a nicer car tho.hehe

i went back and put the actual types or cleaners,waxes and dressings in instead of just their prefizes and stuff incase anyone wnats to go out and try em :)

TW means turtle wax etc.. EO means eagle one

I was expecting the SHOCKER

I will get one later :lol:

Awwh, glad you like your car! :D

You detailed a Tempo?

I suppose I detailed a winter beater I paid $50 for...

Sometimes people just have way too much time on thier hands...

I cleaned them a bit but people drove it since then so, it's hard to keep those fuckers clean :(

I should make a thread on how much in repairs have everyone done since they had theier focus and this tempo would probably own all :lol:

Oh man , looks like u got some killer casettes :lol: wat are u packing for tunes in your tempo?
