Project_1986_TA: That has to be the perfect paint colour/GFX colour/rims combo for a 3rd gen T/A!!! It just looks sooooooo good :hail:

yeah, that does look really good. Do you know the name of that paint, and anyother paint codes by chance? I'm still not sure, but I think i'll go dark blue metallic with silver ground effects

No i dont know the color or any paint codes. All i know is i have ony seen 2 other cars with my same color. My uncle special ordered it new and he just liked the color so he got it. Ill look around for the paint code or the name of the paint since i need the info anyway for when i get it painted.

Thanks for the complements everyone!

Project beautiful car, i got a question for you though, I notice your passenger side headlight sits just like mine. If you don't mind me asking, how did that happen, or do you know how to fix it. Its the same with my car, and it really pisses me off. I just cant figure out how to move the headlight around

Theres like 6-7 10mm bolts holding the headlight on .. losen them then adjust amd tighten them back up .. i dont have a pic but i did it to both my headlights.

I woulda taken a look at my headlight when i was home this past weekend, but lucky me i had the flu and had to fix the backfiring quadrajet (only connected 7 wires ). I think mine was hit, as the hood is not original on the car and the air dam and front ground effects are gone. My car had a mixed history, and all i know is i replaced the windshield as it had bullet holes, and i found a needle in the console. go figure.

Not at the auction, just bought it off some guys yard as a project, hence the name 84TAProject. Except only problem is that my project is basically finished, which means time for a new one.

I just worry I get pulled over and they search the car and i get nailed for stuff I genuinely had no idea was in the car
