This car was one of five that were sold in Canada, but the 2nd owner lived in the States and brought it back.

Does it have day time running lights that are required in Canada?

No it does not and it also doesn't have a kilometers per hour speedometer. This is why the 5 cars sold in Canada were considered "competition cars" and we're not street legal. All 300 00R's were identical.

Well, Tim Brown has two of them and you have a third. That only leaves two more to account for.

Very cool bit of history.

I spent the full day giving the R some love. This morning was devoted to getting the R to pass inspection. That victory made me want to break out into my Ed Grimly dance.

The rest of the day involved another coat of Argos (Liquid Glass Legend version 2.0) and then removing the wheels for some cleaning. I cleaned the inside of the wheels, hit them with traditional Liquid Glass and then went to town cleaning everything I could reach in the wheel well. One big downside to sticky tires is they grab every freak'n pebble and toss them into the wheel wells. After vibrating a bunch loose with my orbital polisher and getting a bunch more when I cleaned the wells, I have a BUNCH of little rocks in my garage. The suspension (what I could reach), the brakes, brake ducts, and wheels are now as clean as they could be.

Pics:

Still haven't polished the splitter (tomorrow).

Insides are clean!

Left front. You can see the brake cooling duct that goes to the carbon fiber cooling surround (not seen):

Mission complete!

You missed a spot!

Just kidding. Nice work!

Congrats. I can remember when I got my R with 17 miles on it.

That is awesome.

I really love the 00Rs.

While the big garage floor is getting worked on, the Shelby and the Cobra R are in the house garage (the 93 and 04 are in storage units). I took the opportunity to pull the pair out for some pics.

Here they be:
