Can you post a photo of how it looks now so we can find similar body-style cars?

Tail? Flares? Fuchs? IROC bumper? etc.etc.

hello there?
are you painting the engine bay as well as the trunk area ?

if not what color was the car originally, as there is nothing worse that opening a engine lid and seeing a different color paint around the engine. just wondering as you might want to get somthing close to the OG color for astetics.

other than that a pic of the cars interior color body style etc.would really help out.

but in the end its all about you, if it where me i would go back to OG but hey thats just me.

cheers ed

sounds very nice

agreed red is one of the few colors i would change to a better color. i can live with most colors but red is well a bit over rated to me.

so happy hunting im sure it will look good.

cheers ed
