Post up your pics of your clean looking V6!! I know I've kinda cloned mine so it's a bit of a cheater... oh well lol












Tell me what u think of the car guys!

 

looks good!

 

looks awsome, when can you help me on mine!!!

 

what do you need help with? doesn't look like it needs help.

 

if you look close she has her flaws, (clear coat on the roof comming off)

 

i really need some nice rims for mine. but its pretty cool

 

camaroguy91, looks really nice!

 

there's some great looking cars in this thread. here's mine before I started a restoration. It will be much better in a few months.

 

^Show your engine. Thread over.

 

HA! ok....twist my arm

 

 

very nice!

 

Needs Sportlines next.....

 

Need to re-paint my front lip bad...

 

I'm in the process of repainting right now, I'll post a pic in a week or so.

 

 

very nice! is that chrome, or polished aluminum?

 

Mine is the best looking v6 out there!

 

The STB and A/C bracket off the plenum are chrome- the rest is polished aluminum.... 100's of hours of sanding, LOL!

 

yes sir, you did it right. I know first hand how hard that is.

I hope my next one looks as good as that. I planning on doing a 3.1 plenum if I drop in a 3.4

 

I gasket matched it and put in plenum spacers to help with the airflow too. When I pull it off to swap in a 3.4, I think I will have them buffed again, along with the Fiero valve covers and clear powdercoated.

 

 

 

Still has the stock v6 but planning a v8 engine swap soon.

 

Mine needs fresh paint but i love the car...had it since 2002

 

'what kind of intake is that?!?1?

 

Those are ITBs, and while I'm at it may as well post up my 3.4 :P

 

where can i get one? do they do anything special or is it pretty much just for looks?

 

Um nowhere, unless you have 2-4 grand to have a place custom make them...And no they aren't just for looks, they add a lot of top end power..

 

This is a horrible photoshop of the wheels I have.


And here are the real things. Can't wait to get the tires and mount them all on the car.

 

I ditched those ugly Draglites. Got something better. Going to get a little bit of a drop soon, louvers on the window, new turn signals, new tires, new chin spoiler and I need some IROC driving lights, I have the harness, I just need the lights and brackets now.

 

 

Does that STB fit under a stock hood? Engine looks awesome.

 

Yes, the STB fits- it does leave a nice imprint in the hood liner though! When I first went to put it on, the mounting plates wouldn't sit flat on the strut towers. My oldest son, who is now 17, had me hold it still on the ground and he stepped on the center plate and gently bounced on it to get the legs to spread and the plates to lay flat on the towers after a couple of test fits. Clever kid. Maybe that made sure it fit under the hood, LOL!

Thanks for the compliment- just got to get the rust cut out, interior redone, paint etc... we are never done, are we?

 

what did you do with the old formula wheels? willing to part? how much? and.........my cars nothing to look at, especially after some punk stole my centercaps...well the three i had left, but it will be oneday

 

If you are willing to buy the wheels and pay for shipping I would gladly send them to you. Problem is I need tires for my new wheels which won't be anytime soon since i'm buying a house. I don't have anything else to set the car on other than those Formula wheels.

 

Needs a paint job, but still working to get the inside nice

 

That is one good looking two tone. What do you need to do to the interior?

 

Very nice! It would scare me to death to go without body side moldings on my car

 

i see nvm then couldn't afford the shipping anyway

 

It would be expensive.

When I had my car painted it was my daily. Now that I purchased another car to take it's place as daily driver, I wish the moldings were removed. Amazingly, nothing serious happened to my Firebird after I had it painted because the day after I got the Metro on the road a rock cracked the windshield and then the following day someone swiped the side very lightly. That's the beauty of having a different daily, it really didn't bother me too much. Not like it would if it had been my Bird.

 

I have a beat up sunfire I can use as a DD, but its going to be hard leaving the camaro in the garage. I just want to drive it

 

I completely understand that. Everytime I look at or climb into my Firebird I want to drive it now. Then...I remember what daily driving the metro has done to it and will now only take it on joy rides or car show meets. No more supermarkets, pool halls, or downtown parking ever again.

 

Reviving this. Lets see what's new.

 

I guess I'll start




Pictures is from my phone...

 

Dear god this is so old. Lol. My car isn't even a V6 anymore.

 

I would think my car would be in the running for best looking v6 car

 

here's my pitch, no where even close to done yet, getting a new hood(aftermarket WS6 hood from 4th gen) chrome or polished iroc wheels, complete repaint, and navy blue checkered flag on top of the hood scoops of the new hood to match the interior and set the car off from others

 

Nice! Sheep in wolf's disguise.

Indeed, Mark! Good to see your paintwork is still holding up beautifully!

List sounds great. Don't care for the WS6 hood on Camaros but if you like it that is all that matters.

I never did post the finished product in this thread so here it is. I have actually lowered the car a little since this picture.

 

Man that is beautiful! Thank you for the compliment, a lot of hard work has gone into that car and more to come.
