Re: Hey everyone (vettedan)
Its actually the claret interior and im workin hard to save the money for all the new parts. Ive got the new tach/speedo lens, new lens for the centre 5 gauges, new seats, new carpet. Im still tryin to get a driver side arm rest. Problem is that i cant find one in my colour. I have a red one but tryin to paint it to match could be interesting. I built a custom sub box for 2 12 inch Infinity Kappa Perfect 12.1's in the back and actually got speaker carpet to match almost perfectly. I also had the car painted about 6 months ago so it is lookin pretty nice now. was in rough shape when i bought it but it is near show quality now. I definetly have corvette fever..heheheh...IM POOR NOW
