Pics, Finally

Just got a digital camera, so I had to take some snaps, even if the old crate needs a new paint job

I like it,the only thing I would ditch is the stickers on the hatch glass, EVEN though they give approxiatmely 200 extra horse power I posted your pics for ya too.

thats one sweet lookin car man.i agree on the stickers also.i think that most third gens,especially ones like yours,are too modern looking for stickers.my buddy has a black 79 T/A and that car is meant for stickers,and he has quite a collection on it!but get that hood painted and that will be one sweet *** trans am! love the color combo by the way.

Man, that is beautiful!

I just have a soft spot for Trans Ams and Formulas with that paint scheme. Here's some guy's Formula, don't know who's, that I really like, too.

Looks good man, I say toss some Crosslaces on it, and call it good.

Oh, and that Red Dog sticker.. hehe

But the first thing I noticed is the Sweet 300ZX in the background, whats the deal with that car?

Thanks, Guys!

The Z is Dad's weekend car. In the winter it usually isn't evem outside.

Regarding Red Dog: The guy I bought the car from said he'd tried to take off the dealer sticker and it took some paint with it, so he stuck on the Red Dog sticker to cover it up. It's coming off when I go to the paint shop.

I also like my wheels just fine. In person they make the wheels look bigger than the stock 'Turbo' wheels did. Besides, I've never seen a set on another Third Gen, so it stands out.

Ha-Ha-Ha! Actually, the Mustang was hiding up in the tree in the front yard.



I think the cat chased it up there.
