What you think of my next project ideas?

Well i have decided since i am going to be taking one hell of a high paying welding job here in the next few months, teh rs is almost "done" for the time being and i want another one to mold to my liking so heres what i've come up with doing.

I want another 91-92 teal camaro (probaly a Z28)
Everything i wanted to do to this on ebut decided against
Ram air II hood
Double decker "mustang" spoiler
Identical striping but gloss black instead of ghost
4th gen interior and all the other good stuff
Air ride since i will have it on this one sometime soon

I want people to know its the same guy who owns em yet wonder since they are different enough that they could be two different owners. That and i want "twins" backed into the garage.

Post pics of your twins if you got em too. What you think, kosher idea?

Honestly, I dont think its a good idea to have 2 projects going at the same time. Cool idea to have twins, just not bilding them at the same time. Get one done first, then move onto the second one and you'll be OK. But if you try to do multiple projects at once time your progress will slow down. You're funds also run thin. Sometimes this can make you depressed and make you lose interest because you dont get the results you want, when you want them. This is a leson I'm learning as I try to work my way through (believe it or not) 4 projects. Very slow progress. Just keep pressing on and eventually they'll get done.

Uh not sure about the double decker mustang spoiler. Have a pic? I like the twin idea though and everything else sounds good.

I personally dont like the ram air hoods on camaros at all. I say maybe an SS hood, and the double decker mustang spoiler is a little much for me as well, but it is your car. Just stating my opinion. Maybe before you start another project you could upgrade the powerplant in the current one?

Hey opinions are what i asked for and everyone has one good or bad so let em roll!

I really like teh idea of one off's something no one else has done or wouldnt do, hence my 4" cowl hood on a street car. I just want it to be different from anything else thats hit the streets, and show scene.

The powerplant in the rs is getting worked over a littel this winter, heads, cam, manifold, headers, computer work, to make me happy for awhile then off in the future i can get stupid with it.

I get what your saying Crazy, me and my dad right now have our 34 ford, 81 Z28, 84 fiero, 91 suburban that are all gettign modified or built, or in the 81's case and almost done ground up resto and then i have my rs on the side.

I have some pics i "photoshopped" of the double decker wing i actually just cut a pic out of a magazine and taped it onto a pic of my car i'll try to get someone to scan it for me so i can post it.

Or go to the ps forum and have someone work my entire combo on
