Default totally stock Cruisers

Just wondering how many folks have managed to resist customization urges and still have a totally stock Cruiser?

Mods are a sickness that most Pt'ers have. You are infected by touching the steering wheel on your first drive.

I am totally stock, but then again I've only had my Big Red for less than two weeks. If my wife will let me spend some more money (it was a chore just to get her to let me get some Zaino), I'll make a few modifications such as a rear spoiler and perhaps chrome grill. Maybe some flames if I find a customizer that has some good ideas.

Mine's lightly modified, i.e.
I could remove the new sound
system and other mods to get it
back to stock if it becomes
a "classic" in the future.

Don't have anything against those with custom PT's but I just really like the stock look. It's what grabbed me in the first place. I do plan on tinting my front windows tpo match the rear, maybe a wood dash kit and perhaps at some point maybe a bigger tire on the rear but for now I like my Black, Zaino'd LTD just the way it is.

Yes, I too am still a stock cruiser. Not by my choosing mind you. My husband wants to wait a year before we do any major mods. Hey, who's car is this anyway? Ahhhhhhh, the things we women have to put up with....

Well, we all fell in love with the stock Cruiser, so holding back is really quite easy. As with Mr.T, I'm gambling that they will be highly sought after in the original condition in years to come. So, rather than spend money on conversions, I have chosen to spend time in maintenance and protection. That doesn't mean that I have avoided the "sickness" to a lesser extent!!
