Spring mist green paint, black deluxe interior but I'm gonna use some 02 WS6 seats and reupholster then to match the original interior with the comfort weave

FI Pontiac 400, T56 or AR5 (depending on how much money I have left lol), C5 brakes all around, Ride tech 4link outback, global west front arms, haven't decided whether or not to do rack and pinion

Yeah is great, I originally wanted black, but there are too many of them, the original color was verdoro green, but again way too many

So another hurdle appears... The shop I was planning on using just posted on December 1st on their Facebook that they were permanently closing because of covid....

Talked to a few other shops and I felt like they had watched too many episodes of gas monkey, they all wanted way too much, one without even looking at pictures of the car wanted to charge 12k for paint and body with no metal repair...
