Here it is,

 

hmmmm, maybe its me but it looks a little off, when I looked at the topic I assumed some kind of cool ram air or cowl. but stock is nice I guess.

 

Maybe your eyes are crooked.


Hey Zeph, Bad ***

Looks good, Cant wait to see the finished producto...

 

I like the color, nice contrast

Yeah, I expected a ram air or ra2 hood on there

 

Looks tight man, did you get that hatch? There is a nice one at ... hurm, oceana salavage is it, over by oceana for 50 bucks.

 

The hood is crooked, need to align it better.
The hood actually looks very very good in that picture. The paint is shot to hell though.

I am trying to get a hatch from this dude that has 3 of them. He's been out of town for a couple of weeks.

I get my y-pipe tomorrow, so I might be able to drive it around without getting a ticket for obnoxiously loud exhaust.

 

out of curiosity why did you need a new hood and hatch, did you buy just a shell of a car?

 

Good question, cuase I recall you having both, is that hood liter?

When is she gonna be drivable! I wanna race, lol. I mean, I want to get burned, lol.

 

I broke my old hatch when I was putting on my 4th gen spoiler. Long story, made a huge mess.

My old hood had a small ding in it so I got this one. It was free, so I gave mine to my friend.
This is how my car looked before I tore her apart,

 

Hey Zepher, if you feel like drivin up to south Jersey, I have a black hatch off of my parts GTA if ya want! Perfect cond, just gotta remove some old tint.

 

Thanks for the offer, but I don't have a truck to carry it back.

 

Do you still have those black snowflake rims?

 

looks great...can't wait to see the finished product

gotta love somebody who puts the best features all in one car!

 

It's shaping up nicely! Looks like you have plenty of fun projects to keep you busy through the winter.

 

hey 88 WS6 TransAm GTA....do you have any pics of your gunmetal gray GTA? I am interested in how it looks....gunmetal gray GTA's are my fav. thirdgen's....I wish I could find one for sale...I only have 1 pic of a gunmetal gray thirdgen so can I have some of yours?

Sry Zepher for messin up your post...but by the way I like the way you are keeping the hood stock...love the gfx...cant wait to see your finished product....but I do think that the only hood that would look better than that stock one would be the powerbulge hood...trust me it looks great on TA's and GTA's...even better than they do on formulas.

James

 

IS THAT HOOD AFTERMARKET? IF SO HOW MUCH DID IT COST?

 

No... its a factory Trans Am/GTA hood.

 

Well, I am only using the stock hood cuz I can't afford the one I want yet. Spent so much on all the go fast and handling parts.
This is the hood I want on my car,


this is my car with a photoshop'd Ram Air hood.

 

Nope, sold them to a guy with a Grand National so that I could buy my wheel spacers. He needed 4 front GTA wheels and I just happened to have 4 fronts on my Trans Am.

 

Nice photoshop job. I really like those RA hoods, especially with a bird on the hood like Scott's.

 

Man, Zepher, I've always loved your TA. I still think it's the best lookin' thirdgen I've ever seen. Gotta love the unique paint job; I like the darker paint on the GFX, v-part of the hood, and wing... When you paint it silver, will you be sticking to that paint scheme? Also, if your putting on a 4th gen wing (black?), why is the RA hood you want not the 4th gen one with the rounder nostrils? Just curious, but looking good, man! When's she gettin' paint?

 

Thanks.

I am going Silver with Black accents, not sure if I am going to paint the V on the hood or just use a pair of stripes that are skinny up front and get larger as it comes up towars the windshield.

I chose the 4th Gen 97 and earlier Ram Air hood since it matches the car better. The 98+ style is just too aggressive looking and is too high, doesn't match the lines of the car.

I will have her painted after I get the hood. I don't really care how she looks right now, I just want to drive her again, been a long time already.

 

question, why did you put that hood on if you want a different one and are going to wait to paint the car until after you et another hood?

 

CUase he's got money flowing out his ***. He needs to buy me some parts

 

Aw.. I'm gonna miss the two-tone hood.

 

Honestly, cuz it was free. If I don't have money for the hood by April, then I will just paint the car then and buy the Ram Air hood in the fall.

I'd like to have the car presentable by the summer so I can get some hot girls to pose with her.

 

i like your reasoning

 

Smart Man!!

 

ya, and I got a new hatch as well,


I definately need paint now.

 

(Zepher Speaking)
Ah HA HA HA HA

I HAVE CREATED "FRAINKENBIRD"

HA HA HA


:lala:

Just Playin

 

Ya, it will look even stranger when I put on my grey spoiler.

 

Hey Manny, I'll take your old busted hatch pieces off your hands...

Lemme know,
Steve

 

The only thing left from the old hatch is the metal deck lid.
If you want it just let me know.

 

You need to bust out a broom and dust pan and clean that garage up. Damn man, looks like hurricane floyd hit it! LOL

 

That's cool, I'll take it.

Steve

 

Give me a call and come get it.

How do you get the glass off of the deck lid, there is this sealer and it's on there pretty good. I was going to use my old deck lid since the one on the hatch is dented, but we couldn't get the deck lid off of the hatch.

 

Hmmm... Dunno. I guess we'll have to take a closer look at it... I'll give you a buzz today, and see about coming over on Friday/Saturday.

Steve

 

Sounds cool.
Talk to you later.
