The Resurrection
Okay, due to some custody issues with my daughters, I had to sell the purple camaro, and now, after 2 years of isolation, the 85 Trans Am is beginning to undergo it's umpteenth resurrection...just thought I'd keep an online log of it for myself and others. At this point I'm open to any an all suggestions/advice/comments! Tally ho!
January 2007, fiance decided the bridge rail was a better option than a semi's grill...

and after 2 years of abandonment while I built up a replacement camaro




If you spot anything that needs repairing besides the painfully obvious, feel free to shout it out! Thanks guys!

Re: The Resurrection
wow that doesnt look bad at all, get the car put on a frame machine to get the rails right and repace the bottom of the core support. they make the metal peices that go around the radiator new its 3 peices and each one cost about $40 each.my 91' had a wayyyyy worst front than that and i drive it every day. ill fix it some day but i hope your rebuld goes well.

Re: The Resurrection
lotus's car was worse. trust me i saw the pics he took. just make sure you get the frame checked first. once you start putting it back together you my notice something here or there you want to replace.

Re: The Resurrection
I will do that as soon as I get a battery in it and get it running again. Good call, I had totally not even thought of it. Thanks! And I do have the bottom piece of the radiator support, just need the left and right sides.
