Good question Mike, it's hard to tell in the first pic but in the second it definitely looks like it could be a dark maroon color of some sort or maybe not?? Hopefully Ed fills us in.

Black Cherry

The color is Black Cherry. It was painted before I bought it.
Me and Sandra enjoy going to the Kemah car show and the drag strip in Baytown. I have not raced it in three monts. I was warned at Baytown that if I break 11.50 I will be banned until I get a roll cage. No cage for my #2 baby. 11.69 is good enough for me, with a/c and full interior.
I love this car.

Congrats Ed! As Jon stated, I couldn't think of someone that deserves it more.

That 117MPH was done in the heat of the day with a conservative tune.
