How about GM Lime Rock Green? It'll take any dirty bird and make her a pretty swan.

Irving - I kinda got tired of green at this point since my lifted GM truck and tahoe are green in color

yeah that sandstone beige with auto couture is classy but I would think the anthracite is unique and uncommon aside from the fact that I love that color .

the A/C kit , just put the SC in a different level in terms of looks I would say... a bit more classier and modern. Anytime man as long as I am there ... hahaha..

Anthracite looks good...

But I think it would be weird to paint a car that color....unless you do everything including engine bay, jams, etc...

Especially if it was Sandstone Beige originally

Well on second thoughts the damn OldManTan has huge drag radials at the back due to the fact that I needed them for traction so it doesn't make sense putting a body kit on it when the rear is kinda lifted due to those drag radials. Body kits looks good with lowered cars.

I will have more flexibility I guess with Red Mamba One . I already have a red SC on Red Mamba Two so I can change the color of RM1 . Its engine bay is black which will go with whatever color I paint the car. It has a good looking engine bay already so maybe it can get the anthracite or whatever I would like when painting time comes. It actually has the AC front bumper now and returned Black Pearl into the stock 97 body since that car do not need any painting thus saving me some.

hey Eldon.. if you have time , come around my place . It has been a while. Am working on the cars today . Good day to work on them. Taking out the fuel tank of Black Pearl and I would try to install a fuel system that could handle +1500rwhp . I would do it right the first time since I will install a stroker setup on this car eventually.

decided to work on the fuel system of the Black Pearl... get it ready for my future stroker motor . Get it done right the first time ... installing 2 new denso and a Weldon 2345a fuel pumps and E85 friendly lines. Will shut the bottom holes on the fuel tank.

I am installing a bigger intercooler eventually on this car with an N-tercooler spray loop and it will have a direct port nitrous setup too. I have installed the lines and laid out the bottles so I can make a wooden platform to hold them under the trunk mats. I am keeping this 1997 SC300 5speed Black Pearl the ultimate sleeper. I kept it original in terms of body kits. No AC body kit for this car.

Not yet. Chicago winters suck. Kinda lazy to do anything this time of year because of the cold.
