id say, get a 'newer' style nose along with side gfx and leave your rear bumper. sorta like nascars, the body curves up in the back. id get different wheels, maybe some irocs or weld 5 stars?

thats just my thoughts,
but DO NOT build your car for everyone else and how they want it.
built it for you and how you want it!

Well Ill Start With the Passenger Side....
Coming home from the local "Old Settlers Day" Festivities a Izuzu Rodeo Came over from the right lane and did not see me in his
"blind spot" (or hear my loud straight pipe glasspacks) So CRUNCH... Cause 1500 in damages Straight out of the Pocket...

Then That leads to the Drivers Side...

Shortly after Getting the damages fixed The TH350 Went out and I happend to get the $$ for a rebuilt TH350 From a good Local Shop He Made it good... So i Try and Roast Some Tires.. then CRUNCH CLANK BROKEN SPIDER GEARS... I pushed the car Up the street and Parked It Til I got a call from the cops that the Person's Kid Across the Street Backed into the drivers fender....

so yeah it was alot of But the Rear End had since been fixed that wall all about 2-3 years ago but I never got new fenders because I never had the Money to get a Decent Paint Job

Any Other Questions?

find some good straight fenders at a pick-a-part, throw them on, and give it a black paint job. that car would look pretty mean in a deep satin black. Before that, either get your exhaust tips hung well, or just hack them off.. they don't good at all when they're hanging there like that. oh, the big chevy bowtie could go, but that's a matter of personal preference.
about the hp numbers.. the only real way to find out is running it on the dyno. You could have the most built engine, but if its running like crap its not gonna make the power it could be.. just by posting up your combo won't give you anywhere close to the actual number..

I like those Weld wheels on cars w/o ground effects. Throw some fenders on it, re-shoot it red and put some grid taillights in it.

Thanks....

Recently ive been thinking about just pulling my engine and gears and then finding a roller with a 700r4 or a T5 or something in it. Cost wise it might be cheaper for me to have my 3rd gen that way but.....

Ive had this car since i was 16 and Id like to really make it "Mine" but im just blathering about now..

Any feed back?
