That looks great! I love how you painted the MARK VIII to match the blue. We painted mine a silverish, but it's wearing off (I have a base model and I like shiny chrome).

 

[driller]

I like the grill.

How 'bout some pics of the custom interior?

 

[chadly]

Thanks trixie, I need to repaint it though.

JP, I will have to take some pics. nothing too custom, just painted the wood trim black to match the body and put on some 32V badging. I need to clean it up a little first.

BTW, Mountaineer pride lives strong in NC!!! That last game was a heart breaker. Hopefully they do good against Oklahoma.

Looks great Chad.

That gen 2 intake looks much better powder coated.

 

[jamies98lsc]

hey i remember doing that intake lol, i spent about 10 hours and roughly 100 conicle sanding bits on that damn thing. it was worth it though that thing is smooth as silk.

Very nice Chad keep the pics coming as you progress, we're all behind ya !!

Sweet car Chad, I am glad you still have it.

I still remember the way it sounded on one of our cruises... IMO it was certainly one of the best sounding marks out there.

Nice

 

[chadly]

Thanks guys.

Max, when did you get the vett? You still got the mark? You had the white gen 1 with the HID's right?

 

[maxmk8]

I didn't have the white Gen 1 for 2 years now . I had a Silver gen II for about a year before I sold it and got the vette in early April of this year.

 

[driller]

That white Gen1 lives on the east coast now.

1996 Opal Opalescent Mark VIII .

[mikenacarato]

what car does that intake manifold come off of? it seems like theres a lot of differences between a 93 and other years.

Nice looking ride.

Nice looking ride.

Even though its a 2nd gen... Ahhhh the old school 5 stars...still love those rims and will get a set for mine when i can. Keep her clean man. Black Marks rule. That thing looks evil just sitting there.

 

[chadly]

The intake is a stock gen 2 intake that Jamie sanded and powdercoated for me. There are a lot of other parts in the engine bay that need cleaned up/painted before it looks good enough for me, but its a start.

I wish the paint still looked that good, but the clear coat is pealing a lot on the hood and roof. It needs paint badly.

My best ET so far is 14.6 which isnt bad for a gen 2

I finally finished the interior:

 

[driller]
