  • Car finally painted.

    Car is done, I have to go pick it up and reassemble it this week, then tune the megasquirt this weekend. Already has a good base tune though.

    Please excuse the cell phone quality.

      That looks awesome! What color is it? It looks similar to a early Mazda color, Tornado Silver, that I had on my 84 GLC Sport.

                Thanks for the compliments, It isn't a common name, maybe dark shadow grey or something like that. I will find out and let you know. This is the second time the car has been painted in the last year. I took a wing at it and messed it up bad, this is my car clubs (607motorsports) president painting it this time. He did a great job I think.
