been working on this 85 T/A for a little over a year now. i have dumped over 9 grand in it in that time. its about ready for paint (lemans blue, 04 vette commemorative edition) the engine bay is already painted. it has a full spohn tubular suspension, 9 bolt with pbr brakes and 4.10 gears bought off the guy (forgot his user name) who wrecked his b4c trailering it to the track, t56 with a spec stage 3, tokico illuma shocks and struts, pro 5.0 shifter, twinturbo hood from motion glass, 4th gen spoiler from g&t fiberglass, and a 355 with lt1 intake, sportsman 2 ported and polished heads, comp CS XR276HR-12 cam, afr rev kit, hooker super comp lt's, comp 1.6 pro magnum rockers, moroso hv oil pump, moroso 6 qt oil pan, and an msd blaster coil and digital 6 with msd 8.5mm wires.

cant wait to get it done.

enjoy

 

I like the turbo hood looks like it coming along. i can't wait to see it all finshed and ready to go

 

Cant wait to see the finished product

 

9 grand before paintwork huh? only about 6 grand behind me, and a few more grand behind some other "high" rollers around here...lol. Did I mention I should have bought a turnkey camaro or a super nice chevelle for how much I have sunk into this thing by now.

 

know the feeling, my iroc is on hold till this thing is done. i am buying the front c6 zo6 brakes when i get my tax return, then i still have to buy the wheels to fit. i dont know how much i'll have in it when its done, but i can already tell it is gonna be way to much

not decided how far i want to take the interior yet, but we will see.

now i have lots more block sanding to do
i will post more when it gets to a point of being more complete.
thanks for looking.

hey man i'm proud of you for building it up and doing the bodywork yourself, i definately passed the buck on that to jay off this board. his work is phenomenal. Wondering myself how much I'll sink into the car this year....ouch already lol. Be nice to drive it "legally" for the first time since 03, although I did make two passes in front of denny's house last year at thirdgenfest, no doors, fenders, bumpers, or rear hatch.....WAY quicker being sooo light. lol.

 

looking good and i dont even wanna think about how much everything id like to do will cost me when im said and done

 

i always get the weirdest looks when i drive one of my cars like that on the road

 

looking good bro

 

Looking good.

Take my advice: Quit adding up receipts. You'll be much happier.

 

i should have threw all the receipts in a box then added them up when it was done. oh well. I will be happy when it is drivable and tearing up the pavement.
