Re: Another Project Form..my 1987 GTA

I cant wait until I get it done but it will never be done. After high school, I was going to go to Wyotech somewere but couldnt leave my mom lol. Mommas boy i know, They were going to pay for me to go anywere I wanted to..anyway I unded up not going and just started working, I got a paint gun for my grad gift and she told me if I wasnt going to shcool, Id have to make this my money maker and learn on my own. Iv done a few cars nothing to brag about but after the cars done, my g/f has got me conviced to go back to school. Sometimes I wish I would have just left it alone and tryed not to blow it up but if it takes me a few years..it will be worth it..and Iv Learned SO much..

Re: Another Project Form..my 1987 GTA

I have a thing for orange. We use the sunset orange effect on alot of our trucks. I like the atomic orange a little better. Has more of a bronze color to it. Some day this will be the color of my GTA. Sorry, I only have done a rifle in this color so far.

Re: Another Project Form..my 1987 GTA

OFF TOPIC lol Is that a Savage? You must like long range shooting!! Love the stock..looks really nice. My dad has a Rem. 700, GA precision barrel(reverse twist I think), some crazy expensice stock, Nightforce scope..Recepts of over $5000. Got it from a sniper that was in Iraq. He had it built after he got out..needed money. Ill post a pic later..

Is there such a thing as on topic. It is a savage. One of my other hobbies.

Re: Another Project Form..my 1987 GTA

Well here is a pic of dads gun. The only long distance rifle I have is an FN PBR .308 24in barrel, Badger O 50BMG Rings and a cheap millet scope..I use it for deer hunting, long distance..its my all around toy, but most of my guns are military guns. WW2 German and US stuff..thats what i like to shoot..

Back to the car..Got the BMR K-member and A arms and had to send the kmember back..no motor mounts WTF..but It looked cool. Should have the new one this week or next. No new pictures..the doors should be on this week..had to spend $200 for door pins..FUN. Then I can spray the damn thing again

So the GTA Is on hold for a little while..Got an ich its getting nice outside and its been 2 years since Iv drove anything halfway fast!!!
