came from a bright red, painted cheaply a couple times. paint was chipping. so changed to a dark red metallic from color code "75" from GM.
jams, headlight covers, hatch, gas door all painted inside. wish i could have used more clear to have more sand/buff time but oh well.            Before:   cant wait to paint my celica's. |

Looks good
 This body style may not be everyone's favorite Corvette but if I was going to buy one, this would be it. You get a lot of performance for what these cars are worth. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.

OP, have you done anything mechanically or trying to keep it as stock and preserved as possible? -------------------- Brand new 6gc owner! (sort of 2011)

I don't own the vette, I just painted it. But nothing done to it except stereo- head unit, and exhaust.
