unsure of the original color, i think it was the harbor blue, seeing as how thats pretty much the color in the engine bay.

The color it was before was an fugly green teal color that insisted on flaking everywhere it could.

bought the car for 500, and i have finished the exterior, halfway with the interior, and still researching the crap out of an LS1 swap. I toyed with the idea of a 1uz swap, but after doing research, it would require an enormous amount of frustration to get it done.

I think she is pretty. Its the first car i have painted. Learned alot, and had fun.


Yes, its the stock body, i like the way it looks with this color. If i could go back, i would do sideskirts, but thats about it.
when i get done with the car, it will drive like a dream, and be sellable to anyone.


and yeah hypertek...
