Nessi - the Lock Ness Monstor Lincoln Town Car

Kade bought Nessi at the junk yard. It was in great shape and didn't have very many miles on it. We needed a car that would fit six people, since we have six people in our family. Kade sold the "fire car"-the Rav4 and then we could license and register the Lincoln Town Car. I was very hesitant with it at first, but I am fine with it now. It has air ride suspension that Kade loves and it is a very smooth ride. It is a bit cramped with all the car seats, but it does fit our family just fine.
Kade just painted Nessi to fit her name a bit better. When we got the Lincoln Town Car I told Kade it was as big as the Lock Ness Monster. Every car has a name and it is a girl name, according to Kade, so that is how Nessi got her name - from the Lock Ness Monster.
Nessi was originally a grey color. Kade painted her with a Shamrock Green and then with a Indy Green that had lots of pearl in it. It is not finished yet though. Kade plans on putting some lace over the hood and trunk of Nessi and then painting a silver over the lace to get the pattern of the lace. We will try to find lace that looks like scales so Nessi will have some scales. It will be cool! Right now it looks a bit "Mexican" because of the air ride suspension and the bold pearly green. We just need some gold rims and tires. A friend of ours told us if we drove in Arizona we would be pulled over and asked for our citizenship.
With Kade every car is custom and I love how he gets so excited and passionate about it.
