3.73 gears w/worn out posi
SLP headers
SLP loudmouth 1

belltech sways f/r
hurt short throw
4th gen leather front seats

i went with
18x8 255/35/18 BFgoodrich super comp II
18x9 275/35/18 BFgoodrich super comp II


paint is in decent condition other than bumpers, it has been repainted. i plan to make this car a carver and a good driver. no so much concerned with the motor since it runs very strong right now.

congrats, that first photo looks like a custom paint job. Black cherry to black looks like a great start...

Looks great! I had the exact same drivetrain in my old Monte - ZZ4-cammed L98 with a T5 and 3.73s out back. First gear was basically useless, except for lighting the tires up LOL. :) Enjoy it!

yep thats pretty accurate the BFGs made first gear a bit more useful but it really needs some slicks and skinnys :twisted:
