My newest f body

Howdy all, I just wanted to post some pics of my 89 RS I picked up about a month ago. I have totally redone the interior and was pleased to find
NO RUST

I am waiting on a few small parts and pieces for her to be completely done but I washed her up today and took some pics. Let me know what you think, any all suggestions for making her better are encouraged.

Re: My newest f body

I'd lose the bra and put some color stripe around the bottom for starters.
Nice looking ride though.

Re: My newest f body

Looks great! I would only ditch the stock steering wheel, I can't stand those square ones.

I hate bras myself unless there on the floor by my bed

I found it in the rear hatch so I put it on

What do you mean by color stripe?

Thanks, I really hate the wheel also but I am trying to keep is as stock as possible. Maybe I can find an Iroc wheel some day at the JY

Re: My newest f body

A little history, it is a California car, has the 6 with 125 k, 5 speed, c&c t-tops, and like stated earlier is rust free

I found the car on my local craigs list for $1200, it has a new paint job, clutch, brakes, suspension etc. The guy who was selling it had no idea what he had

I have since redid the interior, I kept what was good and replaced everything else. I am bad at taking before and after pics because I restore these cars so much I figured why

My wife recovered my headliner and sail panels in 2 hours and she did an awsome job, I am happy with the car and I have some more work to do, keep the suggestions coming.
