last one...me at the shop

 

Wow. That hood dosn't usually look that good, but I like how it goes w/ your front gfx. Nice color too.

 

Very nice car, and .....I think I actually like the hood

This just makes me want my car back from the shop even more....

 

nice...

what colour did you go with??

and now all you need are some "flashy" rims and maybe eibachs to make her stand a lil meaner...but thats only if YOU want those things..

all in all car looks good...

Its midnite blue...I didn't like the hood when I had it in primer (was on the car when I got it). It isn't so bad with the paint on it, but I am going with a 4 inch cowl since my air cleaner hits the top of the hood. Eibachs are coming this weekend, and rims...well lets just say I am paying a lot of money for college...maybe sometime soon though.

 

Nice paint Job
But wait ¡¡¡ Those rims....which car are from ??
are Corvette Rims ??
a friend of mine has those 15x 8 Rims on a 81 T/A
He says its Vette Rims ..its true ?

 

I like the primer better! Just ing How much did that cost ya? Looks like you did the prep work your self right?

 

I'd lower it, maybe diff rims. Is that the turbo hood? all in all i like it, it's got a mean look to it.

 

Looking good. I like the color choice. Out of curiousity what kind of rims are you concidering? And whats under the hood?

 

The hood is the turbo daytona hood, for sale if you want it. What's under the hood??? Check out the signature. I'm looking at getting either the snypers or a polished set of iroc rims in 17".

I did do the prep work myself, since it was my first time some flaws came through with the dark color paint but aren't really noticeable. Working at a machine shop you meet all sorts of people and people who know people. So, I got the paint done for the cost of supplies. Ran me about $400 and that is after they pulled a couple dents for me.

I am not sure where the rims came from. They too were on the car when I got them. I don't remember them being on any corvette though. I saw a very similar wheel in an American Racing catalog about 3 years ago, but it disappeared. If anyone has any information about em, I would love to hear it.

 

Very nice!Love the color/hood too.As for the rims,I do remember seeing them a lot(back then) on early to mid '80s Vettes back then although they are aftermarket rims I think.
