I'll upload some as soon as I take some in the daylight. The car is black and my night time photos suck.
I live in Lafayette now, but I'm from Royal Center (just north of Logansport)

Here are a couple pics of the car. And before anyone points it out, I know it needs lowered and I know the hood isn't lined up right. (stupid aftermarket ss hood isn't right)









Also, just to let you guys know, the exhaust was like that when I bought it.
