Wow! Doesn't even look like the same car!!
Excellent photos on your web site.
Superb job.
Whats on the list to do next then?

We bought our 86 in 1994 and it is still undergoing "improvements"!

Andy.

Hey andy !

Man i had a fellow from UK with a 84 trans am
that looked like a 89 formula
his name was jan larsonn
i havent see him anymore on the net
check the last 2 pics ...from 15x7 to 16x8 ...the look improves!
My problem is that here in chile there are just a few 3rdgens
so its hard to find parts.
Im in disguise....this looks
92 Formula nose and Formula hood (No gfx)
1985-90 Trans am look (GFX)
i cant find the parts anyway !! hohoho thx !
