oh sizzle my nizzle. They never showed up before. Maybe the school T-3 internet is too slow cause they seriously were not there before. I dunno.

sorry,

yeah the interior is doeskin, and its nasty! when i got the car there were all kinds of parts and bolts laying in the cargo area, back seats, and even the front. so yeah after paint i will be giving the car a new interior... im gonna go w/ drak gray. i already have new door panels, 4th gen. seats, and all the plastic. just gotta get carpet and ill be set!

.

my dad's camaro's interior is solid black, mines doeskin. at first it looked wierd, but the offsetting light brown and black grew on me pretty good! Any chance u got good interior pieces u'd wanna part w/ after the dark grey swap? When u said nasty, did u mean nasty dirty or nasty "who the hell would put this color in here?"

don't worry, mine could use some work too

Brandon

well, the carpet if def. trash, the seats are dirty and could be recovered, but you prolly wouldnt wanna fool w/ that. the only interior parts that are worth fooling w/ are the plastic panels, and even some of those the color is faded and flaking. so yeah pretty much, "who the hell would put this color in here?" but some parts can be used, i guess it just depends on what cha need.

yeah pretty much everything is trash, the carpet is for sure! and the seat aint worth messing w/. there are some good plastic panel pieces though, i guess it just depends on what you need?

basically lookin for the cargo area plastic trim pieces. My cargo area carpet feels like sandpaper and the trim pieces are faded/scratched pretty good.

My dad still "plans" on fixing up his car or otherwise I'd have a black interior in perfect shape in mine.

I'll try to post some pics of mine after i get home from school, gotta find some batteries first, stupid cheapo digital camera.

Brandon

scratch that idea....dumb camera

Got any pics of the interior os it currently stands?

Looks like it had EXACTLY the same paint scheme as my '83 when you got it. First time I've seen another car with that paint scheme. Looks like its coming along nicely too.

yeah it was kind of a really light cream yellow, and mine is the only one that ive seen that color now that you say that. was that color a rare color or something? and heres the interior picture...

Cars looking good keep it up

aight guys its been a while since ive posted about this. basically the cars just been sitting in the garage since my last post. ive been just waiting and saving money up for the paint job, and finally after the long wait i have enough to get it painted! should be sometime with the next week or two. ive already talked to my paint man and its set! so be looking for yet another sunset orange third gen on here. ill prolly just make a new thread once i get it back since this one is gotten pretty big. ill keep you posted! and i finally will be able to make a new sig! thank ***!!!! :rockon:

Sounds awesome! I can't wate to see what it looks like when it's done. That is one of my favorite colors on an F body.

Congrats lilthurmy03, I think your Camaro is the first car I've truly enjoyed seeing ZR1 rims on

just thought ide post one on this old thread

Sweet **** dude, looks good with the ZR1's on there. But really, you do need the grid tails...looks so much better. But other than that, nice work.

looks really good. where did you get it at? salvage yard or just used car lot?

i like it a lot, i would love to have the ZR1s, from waht i hear one of your spacers stripped and whells messed up your fender? let me know im loon for new tires and rims..

hey any updates on this yet?

I think I have some "RS" GFX labels laying around here somewhere.

Check that, just found 'em. They go from dark grey at the top to light grey at the bottom if you need them.

Jim.

still waiting on my body man to squeeze me into his schedule. so no updates yet, except ive started savin up for the TT II's. i think zr1's look great on the 3rd gens, and thats really the only wheel i wanna run. but i dont want somethin like this to happen again, so i guess on with the TT II's. i just wonder if my car will look good w/ sunset orange, and those shiney TT II's? i love the zr1's just because they are that painted silver, and nothing too "bling bling" what do yall think?

definently looks like a nice solid car, and the wheels look great.

nice wheels and hood, looks great keep up the good stuff

nice wheels and hood, looks great keep up the good stuff

Torque Thrust II's look good on ANY kind of car to me....I think they would look good on yours as well. But..I'm really likin the ZR1's you have. If I were to get a different set of wheels...I'd go for the ZR1's, they are very tasteful & fit the stle of that car. But..I love my TTII's too...

Holy cow! My Z28 is that creme color originally too! Someone painted i black before i got it. I know its that color cause they didnt paint under the hood. LOL. Very rare i believe, yours is the first car i have seen other than mine that color.

I have a friend with an 85 bird that is the same color but he has a dark brown interior.

OK, I know this is old news but I am experiencing the same situation. I bought my ROC and the hood doesn't line up. The front clip (from underneath) looks like someone just slapped it on with whatever was laying around. I have been told that the car has been in a wreck and to have the frame streightened or sell the car. Heartbreaker. I haven't been to the shop to check the frame. Have huge plans for my car but haven't acted on them mostly because of the idea there is something huge wrong with the frame. I figure that I would have noticed something by the way it drives, but it drives fine. Also I have "been told" that there is bondo in the body. Personally I can't tell. If this is a project car for me, does it really matter? A little wisdom would greatly be appreciated.

I believe the paint on mine is Maco (gulp.) Red in color, came that way, why is it harder to take off?

what he meant was normally maaco is cheap crap. and it will cost more to strip it down and repaint it again than it would to just paint it the right way the first time.

Thanks

Dang yall dug up an old thread. I got the car painted and all that but sold it about 5 months ago and bought me an 01 Z-28. Heres a pic of the finished product on the 3rd gen....

one more...

I finally changed the whole interior out to gray on that car, threw in a cd player, all new weather striping, and put a bow tie style grill on it (it wasnt on in these pics). But I got it done and decided i wanted a 4th gen car so I bought one. Heres a pic of how im rolling now.... 01 Z-28, dark blue, A4, eibach pro kit, chrome z06 wheels, full exhaust: LT headers, y-pipe, no cats, corsa catback exhaust, fast toys ram air, and the cars been tuned. Car layed down 345rwhp and 360rwtq. Car was bone stock when I got it with only 12,000k on it. Heres a pic though...

nice car(s)

i would have painted the 3rd gen the Creme color, that car looked amazing with that color.
