Dam thats gonna need alot of TLC! But congrats Ian!
I say do a black interior, flat black body, with a decent set of wheels. And put a vortec motor in it!

Ian

ian the interior isn't too bad either. i knew you had something up your sleeve. let me know when you're working on it, maybe i can lend a hand once school is done.

what exactly does it need currently? you know, i am gonna have some stock heads off a 2002 ls1 ;)

Ian

my plans for it right now are to build up the L98 short block and put my vortecs on it. I'll be using a carb for now, I dont feel like messing with conversions right now. I dont think I'll be using the 200 tranny right now, I'll probably just dump one of my TH-350's in to get it going. no nitrous.

should be a fun car to cruise around in.

Woohoo! Only one mod left without a non-functional F-body! Gotta get Liz into something larger than a Fiero.

Nice find Ian. I hope you can fend off the parents when they force you to sell it. If it doesn't run and just sits there, they'll get frustrated having to drive around it all the time. Do what you can to save the money and just get it to move under its own power - ASAP!

Enjoy the project!

close, but there was the blue one that I took the front end off of for my 76, then I just recently had 2 more that I chopped up. so technically, this is my 6th second gen :lol:

What, yours? I thought Al was talking about the for sale post above.

If either of you two want late 2nd gen seats (zipper backs) that need recovering, as soon as I get the 4th gen seats in, you can have them.

yeah, now that I look at it again I think you're right. for now my monte seats will do.
