The color of the car is Black Cherry and is almost 11 years old. It will faintly change colors from brown to deep purple to black as you walk around it. When I had the windows tinted I had the chevy bowtie mirrored in the back window.

Here's a list of current mods:

383 stroker
Torque Tech true dual 3 inch exhaust
Flowmaster 40 series 2 chamber mufflers
3000 stall B&M Holeshot converter
12 bolt with Eaton Posi, 3.55's and 30 spline axles
Eibach springs

Future mods:

T56 six speed
17 inch Torque thrusts wrapped in 275/45 Z-rated tires

I have a couple of videos of the car now. You can check them out here:
