The past month i've done so much stuff to the car. The header gaskets were the kicker though. My car has NEVER felt so "together". Its just an amazing feeling when your car is nearly exactly the way you want it.

Here are a couple of my favorite pics from today.

That's a hell of a car you got there!I can tell you've got a little 4thgen flavor mixed in that KOOL-aid!DAMN!!That makes it even sweeter.

 

I'll sure be glad when I get all the bugs worked out of my car!

Nice car. All the time and work shows. Ever think about lowering it just a tad?

 

:hail:

 

Lookin' good; quite nice. The spoiler kicks ace, too
I really like the "ram air" text on the hood

Wish I had that solid "complete" feeling right about now

 

Any engine pics???

 

i dont know if u oticed but u seem to have the camera on some sort of a tilt when u take the pics. Just joking man, but i must say i honsetly am jealous. BEAUTIFUL CAR:yourock:

 

Car is looking nice as always.....

Looked nice when 86fyrbird had it, and looks nice in the hands of it's new owner.....

What future mods you have planned for it?

 

Ya know i am not a big fan of teh 4th gen dash and door panel swap but i think it would look good in your car.
nice ride.

 

DROOL!

 

"together" i don't know what that feels like. my car has no interior, front bumper is off, gfx are off, t-tops leak terribly, and i have no wiring harness. at least we got it started so i can move it and not let my newly rebuilt motor sit dorment for 4 months.

enough about me haha, car looks great.

 

Still one of my fav TAs on this board, can't wait to see it lowered.

 

It'll be even sweeter when he converts to Speed Density!!


Sorry Steven, I had to say it! lol


Mike

 

Damn right it will be Mike

 

Sonar: What have you been doing to make her feel like she is coming together? Fill us in. BTW, awesome car. IMO you've added just enough 4th gen flavor. Anything else like a interior swap would just take away from the car. Keep it thirdgen, beautiful car!

 

looking good as always Sonar. I should be getting my AC lines in today sometime and have her (hopefully) running tomorrow. There may be some hope in my car making it to the gathering after-all.

 

Hey, I couldn't help but notice that the headlight skins don't line up with the hood very well (shoot me, but I've seen that a lot)... is there a way to adjust how they sit when closed, or do you have to tweak the front clip in order to line everything up? I ask because my headlights look like yours do and it drives me nuts. Other than that, your car seriously ROCKS, love the spoiler, too.

 

damn, u have one hell of a car, i absolutely love your car, damn its nice lol

 

wow...very nice

 

man, everytime i see that car i get a funny feeling in my pants.:hail:

 

Sweet!!!, Very sweet!! I hope my '85 Iroc comes out as nice as your car did. Good luck with her!!!

 

Mostly getting the car ready for the gathering thats coming up this Saturday. I've fixed up most of the interior, added that new rearview mirror. Put in a new headliner (which made a huge difference). I've been driving without a headliner for a month or so. Its nice to have one.

My header gaskets were leaking REAL bad, which made the car sound like a bucket of bolts. I changed those and now it purrs like a kitten. I can barely even hear any of the exhaust inside the car. Its a real nice feeling and probabally made the biggest impact in the way I percieve the car while I am driving it. It was embarrasing driving it the way it was before. Even people I didn't know commented on how crappy it sounded.

I also fixed a major paint chip in the ground effects which was only getting bigger. I had that peice of the GFX off for 3 weeks while a guy I knew at a paint shop was painting the new one.

Lastly, I gave it a needed bath. I haven't washed it in 2 months. It didn't look that dirty, but its a nice feeling when you get the interior vacuumed all out and zaino'd the seats and the car fully.

By the way, thats exactly what this car needs, a full 4th gen interior. Then it would be perfect

 

I'd put a nice set of 17's on it before doing a 4thgen dash swap.

But I'd also put a badboy motor in it before the wheels and interior!
