An introduction
 
Hey guys great site here. I don't know if my car qualifies as a G machine or not but I'll give it a shot.
62 impala 2 dr ht. I purchased it sept last year and have been crankin ever since. Everytime I make a deadline, I blow right past it. It's all the little things that holds everything up. But I hope to have it done soon.

What has been done:
-New floors
-all rust cut out new metal in it's place.
-2 tone paint. first time I've ever painted
-shaved key holes and most of the body holes. I left the long trim that runs the length of the car to break the 2 tone.
-frenched in tail lights and eliminated 2 on each side.
-air ride
-tubular control arms all the way around
-4 wheels disc
-20/22 wheels
-custom exhaust
-custom tank with drop-in pump and sump
-LS1
-radiator overflow and mounts
-all new wiring
-custom interior with buckets throughout full electric fronts
-custom dash with autometer gauges
-custom center console
-one piece headliner
-custom door panels
-square weave carpet
-all new glass

and a butt load more

Here is what I started with:

Welcome to the site and VERY BITCHIN' car! It's come a long way in less than a year and has a great look. It may not exactly be a track-day car but most folks here are pretty open minded and appreciate all kinds of updated musclecars.

Keep posting pics and keep up the good work!
