92 T/A conv back to life!
Hey guys would like to share this with you. This is my 92 trans am convertible that's been in the family since 94 my dad gave it to me when he left at 16 and i have owned it ever since. Its been through alot with my from my first lady friend in it 
blowing the engine out racing a vett 
too even trashing the rear and on my first rear end swap lol. I even when to my lowriding phase with me in high school i love that car over the years its received less use and now that i have some money and time on my hands would like to bring it back to life because it hurts me to see the way it is now and how it use to be i would not even left it get dirty would have my t/a shining all the time and now it collects dust. But not for long its getting everything redone or new in some way but would like some ideas and some input on my way to its resurrection
here it is on my high school years
this is now

Re: 92 T/A conv back to life!
Those wheels in the first pic look SOOOOO photochopped (and pretty ugly IMO). How the heck is the front wheel on such a huge angle??
But cool car nonetheless. Converts are def worth bringing back to life so fix that thing up!

Looks like a good project you have. I love the 'verts. What did you do with your old tail lights?

Glad to see there are no more wire wheels on the car now LOL!. Looks like it will be a nice car when done and love the new wheels. I think paint the wheels black where they are red now.

new carpet in but i should have done a search first before installing it its really hard to move and mold to the floor. i read on here that you need to leave it in the sun for a few hours so thats what i did and worked like a charm!

Re: 92 T/A conv back to life!
Don't worry about the 9th injector hole buddy, that can easily be covered with a billet block off plate. Nice T/A!!! I have a 86 T/A blue and gray lower trim. How much was the carpet from hawks?
