Yes I have tried the search but didnt find what I was looking for so this why I made the post.

Thanks 1TinIndian. I would kinda like to make them both match. both are hard tops auto gray interior. Maybe an lt1 in the 86 and 4th gen chrome wheels etc.

Hey Dialed_In,
I love the look of your white one!
I like the fourth gen same colored "Trans Am" instead of the decals.
I had never thought of that!
You cars look great!

that pic was taken at the Fbody.org mailing list event here in memphis. that was during the road course event. we also have auto-x, drag racing and a car show. the event moves around each year so it might be closer to the folks who drive from way up north or from the deep south. its been at Indy at IRP, St. Louis at gateway and here in memphis . it all happens over 3 days. next year the event looks like it going back to Indy and will be held in june.
go to Fbody.org and go to the mailing list, register for the third gen and event list. ask what ques ya need and they will be answerd by listers that have been around a while. the event is very worth going to.
