Here is some pic's of my car that were taken today, I finally got paint on it and I know its cheap crappy looking but the beauty is still there. The paint job only cost me around $100 not bad its a DD car and is not show room cond. So let me know what you think of the pic's.

Re: Updated pics

definitely go buy a set of rims off another thirdgen with the 15" aluminum 5 spokes or go buy some 16" rims off an S10 or something and it'll look even better.

Thanks for the comments and aperfectcircle . The rims are just some junkyard ones pretty much just burnout tires and I think they give the car a mean look and they came off a S10, I still have my old rims if I ever want to put them back on and they were also S10 rims, heres my old rims..

I wish it did it has the old 2.8L in it, but I got to say that the 2.8L is a strong motor mine has 200,000 miles on original every thing and I beat the crap out of it and it still running.

Re: Updated pics

Personally, I like the been-around-the-block look of the car, gives it some character...

Re: Updated pics

That looks just like my old 85 sport coupe after I put my s10 wheels on it before I sold it. Did they run out of paint on the center of the hood!

Me to

About the hood when I was painting it it was like textured where now matter how many coats I put on it just looked bad so my friend had the idea of a light colored stripe to cover it up so I got Dupli color metal specks its the silver can in the attachment. I think it turned out good in the shade it kind of looks like a light blue so you cant really notice it but in the sun it sparkles.

No that was before I painted it blue. I also just got done painting the rims now there the same color silver as the stripe on the hood and it is the same color blue where the trim rings use to be. They look much cleaner now I got to get some tire shine.
