Default My SC400.. my First car LOTS OF PICS 56k warning
Well this car started as a handme down.. to MANY people.....
my aunt bought it used from someone.. then She sold it to my uncle, then went to my other uncle, then went to ANOTHER One.. then came to me (for free) well no one really too care of this car.. i mean NO one.. tranny oil was dark brown almost black, fuel filter clogged, interior dieing, climate control and radio stereo all bled.. etc it goes on.. but its all almost fixed

my next plans are..(not in any order)
HID upgrade
Exhaust
DRop it
RIMS and tires.

well i here it goes..

put it on VIEW ALL and it starts from the BOTTOM to top..

Looks pretty good. Yea black out the mesh in the bumper or get the 97+ grill. What a difference though from when you first got it. Taking your time with it is the best thing you can do.

That was then, this is now. $5 can of SATIN BLACK (very important to remember) spray paint will fix that problem.


PS------- Eh....... what do the door jambs and underhood look like?
