Default Thanks to Auto Elite the Z06 is all one color again... not sure I want to sell now :(

Picked the car up this AM from Auto Elite... they did a fantastic job... the car looks so good which is of course great, but bad because nostalgia/regret is hitting hard.




Here's some pics of the car and the two together...






If anyone is interested she's for sale for $22,900. It'd cost you over $35k to replicate the car (inc. purchase of a stock Z06). The car has just over 85,000 miles on it, but everything other than the glass and short-block is new or has been refreshed/updated. The color is Screamin' Yellow off of the newer Mustangs so it's a good bit brighter than Millenium Yellow but not as pale/green as Velocity Yellow.

-B

Man, that's a tough thing - finally get to see it all one color again, and regret comes in to play. Sure looks great B. When do the side emblems and front screens get put back in?

Emblems are sitting on my work bench and the screens are in the front seat. Painter didn't have any velcro to put them back in. Thanks again forr the front plate filler in a jam.
