Default *Rare EVOII track car*
A good friend of mine and owner of dentsport garage, asked me to take care of his butyfull and rare EVOII track car, it is one of the only one in the US and right hand drive as it was never imported in the US.
It has everything done to it welded roll cage, over 550hp on race gas, suspensions etc...I just love the car.
The car has been washed regularly but the color felt off.
It is supposed to be white but seemed to be yellowish/white.
After claying the car the paint still felt like there was a yellowish"film" on top of it.
This film only cleared up after polishing with a white pad and 106.
on to some pics:





trying to capture imperfection with no success

here you can see the difference between a panel polished (white again) and untouch with that yellowish film:

Evos have come so far. Can't say the II is my fave but it's still a fun car to look at and I'm sure it's even more fun to drive. Nice job on the detail.

Evolutions have always been Lancers. The LanEvo I, II and III were based off the fourth generation Lancer. The Evo's engine and trans began life in the Galant VR-4, that's probably what you're thinking of.
