Raven R code 281 Report post Posted June 9, 2016 Looks awesome! Looks like you have the twin to my car (except the color). Mine is going away for paint in 1 week. I love Gulfstream Aqua but my original color is black. Not sure which color to go with. People tell me that I'll be a slave to Black. It does get dusty and hot fast. 1 69R-CODE reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
69R-CODE 25 Report post Posted June 9, 2016 Raven, black is going to look killer! Always go with the original color. My car was an original gulfstream aqua car. Cant wait to see your car when it is done. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Raven R code 281 Report post Posted June 10, 2016 Raven, black is going to look killer! Always go with the original color. My car was an original gulfstream aqua car. Cant wait to see your car when it is done. Wanna trade?? Lol. I'm trying to talk myself into the black. Everyone(my friends and family) knows I hate black cars and would never buy a black car.......and I have probably one of the best muscle cars ever.....and its black. So it's been tough ever since I pulled the marti report on it. Ugghh!! Sad thing is Gulfstream Aqua has been my favorite color on this car since I first saw one like it.....and I always thought it was the original color (for 29 yrs) because it was the only stock color on the underside of my side view mirror. 5 SweellTrex, SextKecy, unlinihada and 2 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RPM 1,190 Report post Posted March 16, 2017 Whoa, that is one heck of a transformation! Dave, given how quickly your build took, I take it you didn't own it when it was crashed into? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
69R-CODE 25 Report post Posted March 16, 2017 The car was purchased in 1994 by my father (he was the second owner) and was involved in a terrible accident in 1995. Since it was an original 428CJ R-Code, he kept the car with hopes to restore it one day. Years passed and he did some work here and there but we never got around to taking it seriously. Finally, in 2009 I asked him if I could have the car and I started putting her back together again. It was finished in Spring 2015. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
69R-CODE 25 Report post Posted March 16, 2017 The ones in the video were the original gauges from the car. Since then I have switched to dakota digital ones like these. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
