In Oct. 06' I bought this 91 RS for $1200, I was 17 then, and had always wanted a Camaro, I bought this without telling my parents and just brought it home. My mom was pissed. My dad was mad at first, but grew to love it when i got her fired up in two weeks of owning it, after sitting 5 years.

Here's BEFORE:










...And AFTER:










As you can see, i'm not nearly close to finishing, I plan on getting an SS hood, Eagle Alloys 203 rims, z28 spoiler and minor body work then paint, then...engine swap eventually...

Tell me what you all think.

 

how much was the dog?

looks better

 

wow looks like a different car. looks good, keep up the good work

 

Great job on bringing that car back to life! Whats up with the front lip?

 

Thanks guys, the front lip was cracked in half when i bought it, and one day part of it was just gone. It's near 400 dollars to replace, i'm waiting.

 

awesome man, that looks great... ive always wondered what the 85-90 "camaro" grille would look like on a 91-92 ground effects... i think it looks clean. Man great story on your car. Pretty funny too. DId pretty good with what you've done. What color you gonna paint it? great job keep it up. -Matt

 

Great Job, Keep at her!

 

Looks awesome, I love it..great work!

 

Not a fan of the iroc emblem on the back, but everything else is awesome.

Always love reading the rags to riches stories..

 

I agree ^^^^! Get rid of the IROC emblem. The rest of the car made a really nice improvement. Keep the updates coming!

 

IM REALLY HAPPY TO HEAR YOURS IS RUNNING.

I bought mine back in December 06 and still have yet to start her, mainly because I want so much for her before I start her and RIDE her...haha.

BUT AWESOME JOB, engine bay is very clean....alot better than mine and I have alot of new things...haha. GREAT JOB.

Keep Us Updated

 

here is a quick suggestion... i would get some thing to cover the subs so they dont get damaged at all by the sun. i had a similar box in my old camaro, and you could watch the subs fade and potentially deteriorate. i sold the car before i noticed much of a difference in sound or quality or anything. but it could also prevent somebody from breaking in.

 

91-keep up the good work the more blood/sweat/late nights makes the car all that more beautiful---and yours!!!

 

car is looking really good. i gotta thing about white though. you keeping it white?

 

nice seat covers!

 

looks good,nice work

 

I love white camaros. I think i have issues tho because theres somthing i hate about Iroc badges on a 91-92 gfx car, It screams fake to me. I like the car tho keep it coming.

 

I'm keeping it white, but getting it done way better than this paintjob. I had an iroc and put all the iroc stuff on this car, im putting on different badges later i actually hate the gold.

 

Are those door panels stock for 91-92 RS's? I always wondered where my door panels came from. Nice car. I'd leave it Arctic white for sure. There are only a couple colors I'd want my 3rdgen to be. Red, Black or White.

 

I too love to see camaros on their last leg on the streets again looking better than ever. Great job man, keep up the good work.

 

I bet those LO3 valve covers are buggin' you as much as mine are buggin' me.

Starts daily X3 every day.

 

Looks very nice! Where are you looking that a new front ground effect is $400? I replaced mine and if I remember right, it was only $200.

 

yea i think i saw that piece for 200 in classic industries not too long ago.. (i was looking in an older book and idk if it was classic or the paddock

 

I would say loose the seat covers, looks nice though, keep up the work

 

looks awesome! keep an eye out for a cheap set of 4th gen seats. that wool crap is hot as hell. i had one of those seat covers for about 3 minutes then i tossed it.

 

I have a set of 4th gen seats, I think they are hideous, so I'm going to get my power seats out of my iroc and get the done in black vinyl and put them in here. I just hate the grey/black seats that I have, they are ugly.

 

yeah i'm not crazy about the two tone either, but they sure are a lot more comfy than the worn out 3rd gen set i replaced.

would love to recover mine in black vinyl as well, maybe someday...

 

To the last 2 comments, how much would it cost to have them recovered in black vinyl...like if you do it how much do you feel it will cost?

Let me know because I see ALOT of people recover their seats rather than buy new ones, with style.....and I just want to know why....it has to be the cheapness of recovering them...?......?

 

I think it's about 200-400 to recover them depenmding on the shop. I live in the Los angeles area, so there's pleanty of shops. I'm recovering them because I miss my iroc seats, and they are confortable, but tan.

 

I have leather Silver with black piping iroc seats....they are extremely comfortable....maybe Ill just get them redone...the Silver is starting to become....um...darker than silver...DIRTY AS A ****.

Anyone know of any good vinyl aftermarket seats with brackets?

Let me know because I really dont want velour for my seats.

 

Good job man

 

Looks like your dog got mad and started to chew on the dash for keeping him in there. Im sure your car had a musty, damp smell to, i know mine did when i got it. You did a good job cleaning the engine bay.
