You Win

Nice car!

Anyway, here's mine
Before:





After:

 

not a major project....but I got it done...

wish I knew how to post more then 1 picture at a time....

moderators: if you need to delete these picutures, feel free

 

 

Its really simple set your pictures up somewhere on the web (if you dont have webspace just go and set up an account at www.cardomain.com and after that it takes like 30 seconds to upload a pic). Then you go to the pic thats up on the net, right click, properties, get the web address for that pic. Then go to IMG in the VB code section and type the url for the pic in there. You can also put as many pics as you want because it doesnt use thridgen's web space so they dont care!!!

I don't know, I'm not crazy for the stripes going all the way down like that. I know it's an RS but IMO it would look real good with black headlight pockets and the IROC or later Z28 grill, even without the lights.

 

J85IROC: Where are the IROC-Z stickers LOL?! No stripes either?? That car still looks as good as it did years ago. You must never drive it!!

 

holy crap jim. i've never actually seen a good picture of your car, only the pic in your sig. that thing is gorgeous, especially considering where it's come from.

here is my before

the after won't come for another year

 

before:

 

after:

 

Repainted car polo green, added rear spoiler, put on 16" eagle alloys, put on dual 3.5" exhaust tips, interior went from camel to black and grey.

By the way, nice rides everyone!!!

 

Mine turned into a whole different car...

when I first got it:



Shortly after started sandig it.. forgot to get the pic beforehand. DOH



And its current condition:

 

Man, some of these transitions are awesome! It's cool to see how good a job everyone has done, and the before pics! Not a monster change for me :/

 

Here's mine 3 days after I bought it in '99



Here's the latest pics taken a week ago while out on a drive.



Probaby getting new rims, cowl hood and painting it next year. I was planning on getting a hood and new paint this year but my transmission went out again so that was a big chunk of money. Also I'm right in the middle of building a 350

 

The last couple years I've been lucky if I hit 500 miles. :-/ The car pisses me off because it still doesn't run right, and it's a cranky bastard until it warms up, so I don't wind up using it much.

BTW, the IROC stickers are in a cabinet in my garage. I just haven't worked up the nerve to put them on. I got real used to the plain look.

 

Here is a pic of my z28 before my last set of upgrades

 

Here it is after the new wheels and tires, shaved trim, and paint.
It isn't even close to done, I have alot of stuff planned for this
winter, but I am happy with how it is coming along.

 

This just goes to show what new paint, some rims, and the right stance can do for a car. This car owns most out there.:hail:

 

This is when I bought it almost 5 years ago.

 

and here is a recent pic with the polished rims.

heh tamatt27 probably wins the "most major transformation" award

 

The ever mighty 2003 Z06 Corvette rims (mine are replicas, however are 18's all around opposed to the factory 17/18" combo on the Z06).

 

Yes, the Z06's look GREAT on tpiroc's car

 

When I first got it in October of 2000

after...

 

some of these cars were so awesome b4 I don't know how ya found room to improve. Also, I'm glad to see some of these ugly "drag" cars being converted back to cool street machines

 

A week or two after I bought it and got the thing to run....

 

Here is the same car as she sits.....

 

I forgot to mention the hood isn't closed all the way in picture above...here is another angle

 

Spdfrk1990....yes I left it open.

Thanks nick418...yes they were pretty bad and not to mention among the ugliest rims the General put on a Trans Am.
