Default Candy SC400 random new pics

Haven't posted any pics for a long time. Just an update, candy is fading after a few years getting more pink the blood red. Chrome wheels are chipping no supercharger now but still looks and runs pretty good at 115,000. Think i'm going to store it once i get all the use out of it and go back and resto it later with better candy job New motor of some sort with big HP. Anyway here it is...






I guess this is a better depiction of the color, not a cell phone pic*

Yeah, i don't either The candy coat faded. It use to be a dark blood red. The wheels are Sevas S7's, they are awsome looking in design but don't ever by Sevas wheels. They went out of business for a multitude of reasons.

Wheel size?
I like the car for the most part but there's something that's bothering me. I can't quite put my finger on it, though.

Lovely car!

What happens if you get a dent in the fender or something that you need to hammer out? lol Looks great, even with the fading paint.

Looks very nice as usual. I think 97-00 tails would really update it.

Well it is candy blood candy red translucent over Nevada silver. Should have done it over a gold base, it also isn't glossy its like semi gloss orange peel so gives a neet effect some times. I also took the pics with my cell phone i should take some more and add to this so you can get a better effect.
