Heyyas

well, i got my car back today... been without for 2 weeks, i missed it so much

back in August, i was up in the Rainforest, and was caught in a freak hail storm.. my car suffered dints on every panel. screens were fine, and so was i

I called my insurance company, and they covered hail damage... so, my car went in 2 weeks ago to the panel beaters, they quoted $3600(i only pay $450 excess through) the repainted the roof, the silver all around, but not the grey on the lower half of the body, also while the car was at the beaters, i installed some new Alpine 6 1/2 inch for the front, and some Pioneer 6x9's in the rear

I got it back today, and well, the following pics tell the story
(some iv posted before, but still, i reckon it looks great!

Wow! Great pictures and I like the 3 tone colors. Looks like they did a great job. Was it expensive?

As good as new Berger. Another SVX was saved

And as he said before, 3600$ as the insurance quoted, and he paid $450 (I think this is the premium?)

sure is right

while i was at the Port taking pics, i had 2 people come up and talk to me about the car, it was great.. duno if they will buy one though, he had a big Merc 4WD and a huge boat.

Very nice berger. I've always loved silver on the SVX.

Thats one great lookin SVX, and it's even a right hand drive, man I want an SVX like that... looks like it even has the manual seat belts

Some day... Ill get another one, but prolly not as cool as that one, I like right hand drive cars, they look fun to drive. Plus everyone would be like what in the hell??

Not if you were a postal carrier

They'd want swap their box trucks for SVX editions.

NIce job, I was quoted $6500. to paint our 97 which is fairly pristine save for 3 minor dent on the right side and needing work/replace the rear bumper cover. I thought the guy was hanging around the paint thinner too long!

That is a beautiful svx! Could you take some pics of the interior? I never saw a real black interior. I'd give up the tip on my small toe for that svx.
