Nice looking SC, I like the wheels. You can easily do 265s in the rear.

See that you do, please. That's probably one of the best looking colors I've EVER seen, and it just kicks the uniqueness of the SC up another notch.

Frakking awesome, dude.

Looking forward to the progress

All you need to worry about is rolling the fenders and getting stretched tires and you'll be good for awhile

That is my favorite color for the SC! I plan on getting mine painted that color in the future.

I actually really like that color. There is a local SC that color and it's really cool. Those wheels will look great on that SC.

I liked the color so much, I google imaged it. Guess what popped up-

Not to take the mickey out of the OP, or to anger the CL gods by posting a FS car in a different thread... but...

WOW.....That car is in EXCELLENT condition. Damn that is a nice and rare color (not only saying that because I got one )


I love the 99's because it has the 3-spoke steering wheel. I can't stand to drive this car everyday with the old school steering wheel. Thats just my opinion. Sorry. Im not trying to say Im better than you guys.



On the other hand. thanks for all the compliments. I thought that most of you guys would hate this color. I will add pics as i make slight mods to the car. STAY TUNED

TRUST ME.......I cant wait to get them on. Hopefully I wont run into any difficulties or problems.

Speaking of the wheels, let me go get the rear tires mounted on the rim RIGHT now.
