Looks like a lot of potential Bit of Gunk and she should look fine! Any other pics? Still a steal at that money. Plus you have a fiberglass hood :hail:

 

wanted two pics but only the engine shot appeared, maybe to big for both so heres the car instead, will scale them down so I can attach a few more. I do like my hood, have opened up the intake slots 'RAM AIR buddy' need to add some sort of fine grill behind them other wise the disty will get soaked in the rain or indeed when I wash the car, will fix the split on the inner n/s hinge today after I'v replace the panhard rod. Thanks for the £6 geezer will buy you a quick half ya know errrr.

good to see you are keeping up my tradition of putting IROC stickers on cars that are obviously not IROC's!





Love the colour scheme, loads of potential there, enjoy the new toy.

 

And as if the IROC-Z decals on a Sport Coupe weren't bad enough you also put 5.0 badges on.

 

sorry phil the IROC stickers were already on the car! & they will be coming off, I am afraid it will have no stickers when finised except maybe the silver stripe above the ground effects kit.

Absolute steal at £950 Where'd you get it from. What are the known faults? C'mon...it must have some at that price.. Double bargain..if it's just cosmetic stuff.

Well done.

 

and yet people still ask how big the engine is...............

 

Now there's a guy with some good taste

 

Stolen & recovered. Still a bargain though in anybody's book! It ran like an Algerian Camel when he picked it up, but this man has a tendacy to move mountains with his cars

Damo, don't buy the wheels too soon! You know it can wait It will only slow you down the 1/4 anyway.....

Phil, please get rid of the stickers, I think they ruin the line of a clean Sport Coupe!- makes it look more cluttered IMO. Good picture though!

Rob, I always thought your IROC was blue for some reason...

 

Dont worry the wheels will wait, the alloys will clean up nice anyway. Yes being a stolen recovered it came with no igntion keys or lock or door keys, starter motor gave up & a new battery hepled.
Also the panhrd rod bar was u-shaped, new one fitted ( thanks Phil). Most of the other stuff has been sorted, just need a front screen & a few more interiour bits..worth the wait & black is beautiful on a car like this!!

the car came from Wynmondham in Norfolk & was originaly priced at £1695!!.. was an intersting drive home back to
Somerset..nearly didnt make it!

 

Only when it's cold and wet outside :sillylol: :sillylol: :sillylol:

 

Damo

That car is going to be awesome when its done!!!

I love the front end on those 82's, just looks really aggressive!!

Keep us posted!!!!!!!!!!

C-ya

i must say, having just spent an hour removing the 5.0 high output, and Camaro badges, i do prefer the cleaner look without them, i must admit though, i am reluctant to remove the IROC stickers, i think it would look too plain without them.

 

Hmmm maybe remove the IROC-Z stickers phil & replace them with a 'camaro' sticker along the door just in case people dont know what it is!!!

 

that's a thought!

Polished it on sunday (well, it has been nearly a month!) with Autoglym, daym, its shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiny now.

it started to rain the second i finished (i had the roof off) and the rain stopped the second the roof was on. it was like onone turning a tap on and off.

(luckily the interior didn't get that wet, and was dry in 20 mins)

 

I think it'd look better like this...........

 

Agreed with Phil, looks awesome without the door stickers and the wheels. Looks like a clean car anyway but without the clutter it is smooth

 

No decals, and Trans Am GTA wheels.....




:hail:

that is going to have to happen.

 

wow, that looks so much better without decals. get the hair dryer ready!

 

I think we have a winner! See you on Sunday!

Felix

 

Looks wicked! do it phil mmkay

 

Uhh, you mean WEEK Sunday?

 

I knew that Holiday seems to kill off any concept of time Gives me more opportunity to prepare the car!

Have you sourced any GTA rims yet?

 

no, i think they are a little way off, thirdgen 03 has run me over 1250 quid!

 

£1250 Wow that is dedication! The wheels can wait! Removing the door stickers is free though

 

still uncirtain on removing the decals. it looked kinda empty without them.


*yay, 600 posts*

 

The word is Clean without them

 

hmmm, still not convinced.

oh, and felix, i got a great pic of you!!!
(non offensive, and you have (sort of) seen it before.)
