Jeff

 

ok one bigger pic

 

Wow, what a difference! Nice job man! :hail:

My hats off to you for forseeing what the car could be. I really admire that because I am the first one to turn my nose up at a "rough" car and spend the extra cash on the so called "perfect" car. I wish I had that in me, to forsee what it could be....and be willing to do the work as well!

 

ok lets have some fun... that is my son in the bigger pics.. can you read his mind? he is 16 1/2 and has a permit .

Put a caption on the kid

 

"I bet I could wear that out."

Nice car Jeff.

 

"Sooooo that's where I was concieved!"

Awesome job, I love that blue. Now you just need to get a spoiler of some kind.

 

"Damn, why can't I find the right key? Oh! Hi dad!"

 

"Hey dad, better let me drive it, after all Im choosing your retirement home"

:hail: WOW man, its sooooo hot , thats one crazy car you got man, i wish mine looked like that but yeah, I have plans for mine.....Im only 17 so its my first car, debating wether or not to sell it or fix it up for sentimental reasons......but yeah man does your son like 3rd gens??? haha man again, great car, love it you did an awsome job......probably saved a SH*Tload by doing it yourself......and a huge confidence booster:hail:

 

it looks like hes taking a leak

 

" I wonder if Dad did all this for me... ???"

 

"I wonder if I can take the miles back off by runnin' it in reverse??!!"

 

"hmmm...that backseat looks kinda small"

 

also "too bad that beauty has to sit so close to that nasty ugly Ford"

 

I love it man, it looks perfect. Any additional plans or are you done?

:hail:

 

other than putting the spoiler and gas door on i gotta paint the window trim, bunch of little stuff...

well there never completly done. it does dtill have the original lb9 305 so maybe i;ll build something for it..no real additional plans right now.

thanks for all the congrats.. i am pleased with it so far. alot of first with this car first paint jb done by me first suspention rebuild. brake upgrade blah blah... alot of engine work that i have not done much of. just basic wrench skills.

keep the quotes coming.... nursing home is the best one yet ( 83_camaro_83

 

looks very slick! At first...I wasn't so sure about the silver ground effects...but now that you have pictures of the car outside.....they really enhance and highlight the blue

 

thanks customz28..

i had thought about doing the all blue treatment.. but its been done so much and the car originally had silver gfx and i liked it. so its and updated look but still kinda original like the factory had it.... well i gues it was blue and silver....

 

 

"I wonder if they make spinners for those wheels, now that would be tight!"

 

Smokin'!

I always loved that color scheme, I have considered painting my gfx silver a few times...

 

nice job jeff, love the rims and the color

 

Caption: "Someday this will all be mine!"


Looks great, now get the rest of that spoiler on there!

 

very nice car man

 

for those of us who would actually wanna seeeee the car... not a dot...







Damn that car is beautiful, Jeff



Rabbitt

 

wow much better shots, thanks. now get a gas cover and take your tire sticker off !

 

thats the exact combo i'm going for, now i'm set. gorgous car

 

Looks great. Those rims look really good. However, I think it'd look better if the ground effects were body color.

 

Looks great, what size tires and wheels? What blue is that?

 

"i heard you can get alzhiemer's from drinking from pop cans.... hey if dad got that then he wouldnt know it was his car.... 'Hey Dad... want a coke?'"

absolutely gorgeous, just stunning.

 

If Im not mistaken it's Kandy Cobalt Blue....he can fill you in on the base coat and amount of layers etc as it'll differ


friggin spectacular btw

 

one word WOW

 

Yeah it looks GREAT!!!. Looks like those boyd coddington smoothie rims becoming quite popular.

 

cobalt candy blue from house of kolor. it is over a metalic primer base then a metalic blue base coat which i forget the name of it. if you search on project resurection its all in there there are 7 parts.

the rims are 17 x 8 frt and 17 x 10 rears
tires are 245 45 17 frt and 285 40 17 rears bfg kdw's

thanks

 

is that why i suffer from "crs"? can;t remember s###

 

Jeff your car is beautifull man I watched all your threads and its cool to see it all come together. Love the rims and the paint. Definetly one sweet ride.

 

this really doesn't have anything to do with anything but I've noticed this since the first time I looked at it- that picture of the rear of the car looks like a Delorean... maybe it's just me but I think it's kinda funny- I'd be gettin' that spoiler all on there
