Awesome. When my car is done, the exterior of it is going to look very similar to yours. Nice to see someone else getting rid of the stock mirrors too.
Wow, that's a reeally nice mix of fourth gen with third gen. I like the spaceship-looking ram air and rear spoiler with the hard muscle car lines of a third gen. My rubber OEM Formy spoiler is cracked and I'm thinking about switching to the fourth gen style.
Thanks guys,Its been a long 7 years finding all the parts.I found this car sitting in weeds about 5 foot tall 7 years ago,someone decided to strip all the good stuff out of it,it did have the RPO code in the console(Y84).The engine was still in it (Tuneport 5.7) but it made a terrible knocking noise.I installed the 355 with dart heads,changed to carb 800 CFM(was running in that class at the time)installed the TOP SHOT nitrous kit,200 horse power shot,Richmond 5 speed,373 gear.
Only thing I wish I had done different was left it TUNEPORT,but I can always put it back one day!!!

Looks like a Summit catalog puked under the hood of your car...
But, at least it is clean.

One of the most custom GTA's I've seen. I usually go for the stock look of our cars, and will on mine. But, there is something about your car that I like. Maybe the overall car is what I like, I just don't like some of the individual items.
In the next few days I will have some more pics,I decided to re-do all the stuff that wasnt neat.Re-did the wireing,gauges (AUTOMETER SPORTCOMP)gauges in there now,17 inch wheels,sold the 16,s.True duel ehxaust ect,made it more clean and mean.Got rid of any stickers,remounted the MSD.
Yes it is a SUMMIT EXPLOSION,everything is from Summit and GM,LOL

I remember that car! Haven't seen any sign of you since Dave Staubli shut down his message board at Thirdgen USA.I see the GTA is still in great shape, get those new pics up soon.
Sorry for dragging my tail getting you these pics. Mine are 17x8 with 4" backspace and -11mm offset. I also have the thin drum brake spacer on there as well.
