New GTA in town

Hey guys, another Fbody in the family... the camaro is long gone but my bro just got a GTA.

Its got 129,000km .. its in really good shape just needs a touch up in paint and a rear spoiler, if someone has one in good shape let me know.





305 TPI - POSI
Transam GTA
T-roof
Even the rims are still in good shape!
Not to mention it dosent even have a spec of rust on it.


Nice to see you all again

The car looks in great shape. I don't know your bro's budget, but if he can, he should bite the bullet now and buy a fiberglass one (possibly from one of the sponsers - or do a search on here) and get it done right the first time. That's one of my future changes. (much farther in the future - but it will get done someday)

Agreed, they're cheaper than a mint factory aerowing anyway (unless you're lucky) and a hell of a lot lighter. Plus, no rotting problems.

Nice looking car. Those rims on a GTA really bother me though. lol What year?

its funny because me and my bro cant stand the honeycome rims, just blah. But in my opinion all GTAs came with ugly rims. Camaro rims were much nicer.

Lies! All LIES! <shaking fist>

lol Personally I like the crosslace rims the best of all factory rims (I'm torn between gold on GTAs and black on Formulas), they look nice even on Camaros. I HATE most aftermarket rims though. Go figure.

Defenately go for a fiberglass wing. It will be hard if not impossible to find a stock one in good shape. My stock one was ok till someone tried to tear it off the car. I bought a glass one from a shop somewhere north off dixie. The wing is good but the shop is bad. Took over 3 months to get some of my parts. Still have to put the wing on. I preped it and that was it. Think I paid around 550 or so for it.
