Got it off the jack stands and out of the garage on its own power today for the first time since December. Felt good to wash it. Should be drivable within the next few weeks.

Re: Post some Spring Pictures
It was still early and just getting bright outside at the time I took the picture.
This is after I fit the new grille insert and repainted the area around it with rattlecans in primer, black and glossy clear.
The area behind the grille insert was badly cracked. I´m glad I took the original insert out before the front fascia broke in two.
I reinforced that area with fiberglass and it´s as good as new.
I also made a license plate holder using a small bit of sheet metal that will go on there later today. It´s also painted in glossy black and kept to the minimum area to fit 3 holes in, making it less visible when there is no plates on the car.
Here in Europe I must fit a license plate on the front as well as on the rear which kind of spoils the fun in having a good looking grille insert.
I do intend to add mesh inserts at the back of the grille insert to block the view on the A/C cooler which isn´t the prettiest thing to look at. Black mesh should increase aesthetics a bit there.

Re: Post some Spring Pictures
Nice cars guys! haha and yeah youd have to be Gumby to be able to get into that truck 
Some info on my car.We were gonna do the whole car matte black.Decided were gonna do white. Yes i know "WHATT WHY WHITE?" Just think itll pop and stand out more. GOnna keep my rims black and i already have a triple black car.With a mix of the interior and the rims,as well as the fact that im getting the windows tinted to 20%,its gonna look real nice! Heres a pic of exactly what its going to look like (Plus my cowl hood) Dad even wants the pontiac windshield decal. And he wants the wrap around. hes also gonna paint it the same way this guys is. Which im not a fan of but he loves it so its all up to him! haha. its his money. Were also gonna take the mesh behind the heat extractors on the hood and the fenders and paint them black white the extractors are white. Also my Side lights are already blacked out.
Some other things ill be doing
-Black and white shifter boot
-Black and white seat covers (Maybe)
-MAYBE the black and chrome torq thrusts
The rest will remain a suprise i guess Haha.Hopefully itll all be ready for thirdgen fest
The car needs body work from front to back.Itll take a lot of time and effort. Ill have to haul some major @$$

Re: Post some Spring Pictures
On a nice little Good Friday drive today here in beautiful Norther California. These pics were taken in San Juan Bautista. It's crazy how low the car is to the ground. My GF is only about 5ft 2, but looks like she is towering over the car!
