Back in the fold

Well after a lengthy hiatus, I am back with an SVX. This is the last of Earl's cars that I have been talking to his son about for over a year. Car gets picked up by the shipping company on Monday in WA state and should arrive here in MA about 9 days later.

Re: Back in the fold

Looks nice. Is that a 97 or just a 97 grill?

Re: Back in the fold

Beautiful condition. Looks like an Alcyone hood ornament too. JDM lights on the front fenders? Is that a chin spoiler under the front bumper? Something looks different about it.

Re: Back in the fold

Which red is it? As much as I love pearlies, red/tan really grabs me. Beautiful car.

Re: Back in the fold

Glad to hear you were able to get this car. Thought he was planning to hold onto this one but, in the end, he probably told you the same thing he told me: Earl would have wanted the cars to go to good homes. In any event, congratulations! Attaching two pictures of Earle's 97 with a 36K 94 that was for sale here in Maryland on Bring a Trailer.

Re: Back in the fold

Your '97 makes mine look like a ... well, really bad.
What a beautiful car. Bordeaux Pearl is the best!

I agree, Bordeaux is amazing!! Is your clear coat peeling or the paint in extremely rough shape, or is it just dull with lots of fine scratches? If it's the latter, consider shipping it to me and I should be able to sort it out so it can do as seen in the attached photo....

Re: Back in the fold

The car had been sitting in the garage and has some dust on it. It is going to a local detailer once the roads are salt free here in MA
