looks wonderful! I love that year just because of the mirrors. My 95 has the black mirrors and red body.
I love the wire hide mod, I have always wanted to do that to mine. I just might when I start adding all the chrome under the hood.
Interested in selling yours? lol.

Hey, you need to clean off the black paint where your STB used to be. You may want to try a clay bar but will problably need something else. I love the hidden wire mod! It looks even better on the lighter color cars like yours!
