that color is great, i really like it...question though, is that just a shell or is the interior behind the masking?

mjshira 05-05-2005 05:38 PM

what color is that?

Mark Wilson 05-05-2005 05:43 PM

Previous threads detailing the work over the past 4 months.

I have wondered at times if it was worth the wait. I was lucky enough to have a buddy loan me one of his 911s when I went into convulsions or I would have never made it through the winter ;) Thanks Alex, I owe you big time!


No question my answer came today when I stepped into the paint booth. It was worth the wait.

Mark and crew at Eurotech here in Kirland WA have done an amazing job beginning to end. I couldn't be happier with their efforts and suggestions.

Chipped and dyno tuned, 280 rwhp, '95 3.6 with CUP cams and a custom exhaust goes in this weekend.

Interior looked like this 4 months ago. It has also been totally redone but in a very similar color scheme as this.

Paint is a Glazurit blue metallic. Close to the older gemini blue or newer zenith blue.

rdane 05-05-2005 06:39 PM

Beautiful color and paintwork!

BigKenSteele 05-05-2005 07:00 PM

I can't decide if I like the outside or inside more. Absolutely beautiful!
