Spiffav8 06-07-2012 02:07 PM

Great car to start a project with and for a great price! Gotta love Mom! Should be a ton of fun when it's finished. Like Mario said....you're in good hands.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Car is off to paint tomorrow.
I tried talking Steve into keeping the original paint as it is not to bad :_paranoid
This car was perfect Zero Rust.
It has our New Second gen torque arm suspension in it.
allong with the Street Fighter Front Subframe a 525 hp ls3 and t56.

Looks like a good game plan to me.

tones2SS 06-07-2012 06:29 PM

Looking like a great build.

WSSix 06-08-2012 06:59 PM

Very nice! Where can we find out more info about the TA suspension, Blake. I didn't find it on the website under 2nd gen. Did I look in the wrong place?

Firebirdsteve 06-09-2012 01:26 AM

Off to JF Customs for body and paint.....:thumbsup:

You nailed the backspace with those IROC wheels! In all seriousness, the paint looks great and I can't wait to see the new wheels under there.

WSSix 08-23-2012 05:36 PM

Looks good!

Rybar 08-23-2012 05:42 PM

Looks good, where were those photos taken, in Osoyoos?? :thumbsup:

Firebirdsteve 08-23-2012 09:43 PM

Yep...JF Kustoms! I have a place up there, which has been very convenient for me to keep an eye on the body and paint.:yes:
