yea it'll be nice. the reason the hood is stuck up alittle is because the car fell off jack stands and the shroud got bumped up.. nothing major happened and i got the car for 300 bucks

I see nothing to make fun of there. That's what they call a project car. I'd go kick that pothole's A$$!

Wow. I think it looks nice and a great start to a project car, esp. for the price.

It's a nice car

It looks like a nice Trans AM.
I would try and sue the town where you hit the pothole.
You probably won't win, but you never know....
Good luck with your new car....

why is a gash in the floor boards killing your old car. just beat it down, have it welded up, and then you have 2 ta's. of coarse you have to get the other parts that broke.

My cousin had a 86 T/A and just had it painted (he lives in NYC) and Con Edison didn't put up cones around where they started digging and his car fell into the hole one night he sued them. He got them to pay for everything tow, all body damage, paint, and suspension damage. being that they were gonna pay he took it to a dealer LOL..
