i went and tried them ,the center bore is way too small so im sticking with these for now.what would you pay for umi single adjustable lower (rear) control arms,single adjustable panhard bar and weld in sub frame connectors new(remember im in Canada too so i get shafted usa to canada and shipping ),let me know as im doing a deal right now
i painted the hood ,looks a heck of a lot better than before.i also picked up some new umi sub frame connectors,adjustable panhard bar,wonderbar and adjustable torque arm(at a used cost of course,all for a grand Canadian)
here is a night shot of the hood,i definitely need a better camera.those iroc rims look great,i think i want some 17 or 18" honeycombs or bbs style rims but one thing at a time.

^thanks! I don’t mind the wheels you have now and you grabbed them at a good price iirc. Nice job on paint matching hood ! I realize if I paint mine or wrap I’d lose sleep trying to match the white exactly so other colors will do when ready lol
east bound n down,loaded up and trucking,we gonna do what they say cant be done.
we got a long way to go and a short time to get there.im eastbound now watch old bandit run.................
Figured I’d share my 87 Trans Am it’s an Ls1/T56 setup. 243 heads and mild cam, hawks budget headers, ctsv big brake setup and the icing on the cake...
CCW Classics (fitment for 4thgen fbody)

That looks amazing. Can I ask how much it has been lowered by? Ive got 30mm lowering springs to fit to mine but yours looks perfect.
Thanks in advance.
I'm in the process of rebuilding mine as he has been in storage for 12 years. Hopefully done for the summer.
Thanks!! As for the lowering spring someone gave them to me.. they look like an off brand painted like purple. I’ll measure from the ground to the fender to give an idea. I like the stance but the headers hang low and scrape on almost every speed bump. Your project is looking dope as well! Keep it up! These cars are getting harder to find.. at least in my area

Purple? Oooh they might be vogtlands which is what I have to put on mine. I hope so as yours definately has the stance im after. How does yours ride and what shocks have you got? Ive got a set of Koni's to go on as well as lower rear arms, panhard rod, tubular A arms and a 36mm sway bar. Fingers crossed it all works well together.
Thanks again.

Haven’t been on in a while so I have a lot of catching up to do. Been busy with kids lol. Not sure how tgo members balance family and car time, but props to them! Nonetheless, great to see people showing some love with their cars....here’s mine nothing new. Just glad to be driving when I can lol!
Rims loook good! BMW wheels looked good as well...hood color matches better too! I don’t love hood pins but it helped my hood sit flush up front which may help yours. The trade off though is pins lol.
gta
i think im just going to strip it,its got some pretty intense cancer underneath,in the strut towers,drivers side floor,rear fender passenger side.
i dont have room for both and can not get into an intensive restoration of a rusty car in a single garage at a town house.
im definitely stealing your idea of using GTA badges,possibly the wrap around wing(i do like my high-rise though and it weighs MAYBE
a 5th of what those wrap around wings weigh),some of the interior,the aluminum drive shaft,the ceramic coated headers ETC ETC ETC.
I may actually take the L98 350 out,the 700r4 out,the nose and anything that is or isn't bolted down.
Don' think i ever posted pics of my shifter mod. So when i did a t56 upgrade on my 82 t/a i used a new factory camaro ss Hurst leather shifter handle with red stitching to match the car. I also had to make a spacer to move the shifter handle over so it sits in the middle of the shifter plate hole.
absolutely stunning,what else can i say.good god that is sick and looks like a rocket sled(in a good,very very good way)
im a big "these wings belong on our firebirds more so than camaros,sorry" kind of guy,see 1969 trans am and you will get it.
this wing belongs

Took it out the other day. 700hp of turbo 5.3 fury!
Looking good man! I get in trouble with half that power lol so can’t imagine 700hp! Been able to take mine out, and aside from spirited driving, its just too hard not to race someone that’s revving next to you lol. Nice to see more firebird love.
Both those cars look great with those wings!
The dash and console are from a 89 gta. The shifter **** and boot are from a stock 2011 camaro ss with hurst option. I used an aftermarket Hurst Competition Plus shifter with a shortened 4" handle using a 1" spacer to mount the shifter in the center of the shifter plate hole. 2011 Camaro Hurst Shifter Boot & ****

this is the photo of a 5th gen interior,he has the shifter in a gta console!!
Indeed. I should have explained better.
This is a close up from a larger pic. The car is in storage while i work on my grey 83 t/a so i'm not able to get a better pic.
Another mod seen in this pic is the steering wheel horn button logo. This logo is a 2nd gen steering wheel horn cap logo that happens to be just the right size to fit in many brands horn button.
