I used to draw lettering on my tires as a kid too. BUT, with the 16" wide, deep rim diamond spokes, I prefer the blackwall.
On my Cads, forget about it, but recently a custom '88 Deville pic featured large custom rims with the low-profile rubber...as hokey 'pimped' as that seems, these looked super fine! The car was shaved of all but the lower chrome trim...handles and locks gone!
Very cool, fiftys/70s style mods

Wow, Trans It....thats a great looking ride...hyper rare, 1 of 105 Manuals made! A friend of mine has a 91 TA with 5speed as well as for me mine is a 92....

Trans It

Cad: I'm too much of a 'keep it original' nut to part with these wheels. Besides, isn't there different bolt patterns between the 15" and 16" wheels?


JWK: Thanks, yours is looking killer too, great color.

Cadillac

I don't think there is a difference in the bolt pattern but I understand where you are coming from.

Now... about those taillights.

Rezz

They Shipped them to Canada too. This factory 1991 came with a special order code Z28 hood. The Ronals were a must addition
We might not have hockey but we got style!

I'd say downsize you pic so the pixel blocks are invisible. I use ImageFolio software from Concord digi camera's software, should be avail on line. I use it with my new Sony digital cam as well, I haven't seen anything better yet, though I suppose there might be
BILL

Rezz

Thanks bill. I'm gonna give it a try. I was hoping some one would fill me in!!

Bill Speed

When your camera limits your options, the software really helps, in the case of ImageFolio, not only do you have pixel and paint editing, you can rotate, crop, rescale (two options), sharpen (I always use for fuzzy pics!) and soften, emboss in different textures, inverse (negative edits, etc.) You can even change file types with it, to compress for more space

Here's my vert, '91 RS 5-speed, bought it with 57k miles all stock.

Rezz

Oh I like that. When I ordered mine the converts were not available in Canada in standard. Nice ride

Rezz

Ok heres another look at it

RS89convertible

here is my 89' RS, i need to have it re-painted, and i need new wheels which should be here this spring or so, the best thing about it is that I dropped a 355 TBI last week and it is running like a "champ"

Thanks for the compliments Rezz. Your ride is looking good, I like those firehawk wheels. Looks like it was just a low-res camera the pic was taken with.

sorry here is the pic of my car

Rezz

Ya I've been messing with the file size and it really makes the picture go to hell. I'm gonna try to up load a new picture here shortly.

Here is a better pic of mine

92TA

Well here is mine. I've seen mostly IROCS and thought a T/A would be nice to me seen. Does anyone have any info on 1992 Trans am's? I have one that is in great shape and would like to know how many were made. Mine is a white with tan interior, 305 TPI, performance suspension, aluminun driveshaft car. Any help would be great. Thanks

383T/A

My current project. 1984 Trans Am. Custom Convertable. Sub frame connectors, full length frame. 383 in the shop and saving for the T56. 16x8 Centerline star wheels, vette buckets.

Workhorse

well first ill apologize now first for no pics then for havign the best convertible ive ever seen lol
1983 Camaro Z28 ASC/Mclaren convertible (batmoblile w/ top dn)
well its not stock they didnt even make conv. in 1983
but that doesnt take anything away if u would like pics of this sweet car or know anything at all
aim me at bheisler7
i will post a site with the pics hopefully tomorrow
504 done and no info on any other then this that i can find if any info on it please help it is white with a black top

Bill Speed

Yeah, lots and lots of Camaros here!
If ASC was doing conversions in 1983, it's a new one on me, was it done further down the road from production?
Do you think it was a proto, or a show/concept car?
Bill

BTW, rescale your pics smaller and they should look a bit more detailed. I use a sharpening effect to get rid of fuzz from the camara, stuff that looks like camcorder shake, with Imagefolio it works great. I checked on this program, came packed with the Concord Mini eye-Q camara I bought but is avail. on line. You can compress pics with it too, if they are too large, or of course, crop the extra bits off

Workhorse

Here is the 1983 Camaro pic

Workhorse

From what i know the Conversion was Autoform or Custom Form and this was done right after production(like sent stright from the line) is there any more info anyone has that would be greatly appreciated
Thanks and here is another picture


Here is the "batmobile" part

Hi to all of you out there new here hope to hear from all of you soon. For my part I have a 87 GTA 350 5 speed org brought new in 86 direct from GM, from one of my dear friend that work at Test Track in Florida he took care of all the paper work.

lol great pic man i love the car
for all u thinking im losign it no i cant see a picture either lol

Bill Speed

Take some pics of early converts top/frames, int...stuff that differs is always of interest I think. What mods make it unique. I recall seeing that square light between the seats...is that factory? My vert has NO interior lights other then the dash itself. I use a flashlight...all year long! hehehe
Here's a resized, yet sharpened pic from my negs transferred to Cd from 35mm standard film. They aren't as sharp as I would have expected. I should try different shops for the same Negs to see what results.
Anyway, this was before rust and dents got real bad!
Bill

Workhorse

it is factory from CustomForm or AutoForm
seeing that the 83 convert was never factory
thats a cool car looks alot older then it is tho

all the pics r great!
here's my 92 RS Heritage Edition with my 4th gen vert

Bill Speed

The mods prefer keeping a thread consistant with pics, but on the same token, it impedes slow connected users like me. Make sure you resize'em small enough to load up, otherwise they won't.

If you host, it's not a concern I'd say, but max uploads to 700 or 800 pixels. I tend to do that when saving most cam pics. I don't have a car shot with me YET, but how about one I took at work?
hehe

progess insinuates that things must move forward... not back.

---------------------------------------------------

If you made a wrong turn enroute to a destination and had to backtrack the backtracking would be progression toward the destination.

Another for instance: General Motors seems to have completely lost touch with it's customer base. They keep making ugly cars and pricing them way too high. EX that Pickup truck that transforms itself into a (UGLY) roadster I think they call it SRS?... I read in a magazine that Chevrolet had expected those things to sell like hotcakes... The article said that dealers try to keep about a twenty day inventory of automobiles on their lot. At the time of the writing of the article nationwide there was over a three hundred day supply of those vehicles.

SO, having made a WRONG turn in doing away with the Fbody and bringing out an overpriced bomb like the SRS progress would be to backtrack and produce a product that people will buy and provide it at a price they will pay. Bring back the Fbody!

All "progress" is not forward or even linear...

Speedy

Bill Speed

Well, how about, I don't think the truck is ugly, however, because of the price, people aren't flocking to it like Dodge's earlier designs (PT Cruiser, of course) that with the advent of the pricy Viper really shook the auto industry, yet everyone is playing favorites and all new cars look the same, by and large. The boxy car became a curse, and the Taurus and VW brought bubble/jelly bean cars to manic buying/making proportions. It's truly sad that looks and quality, both build and technical aren't able to combine in a manner they hinted to throughout the 1980s. I'd say the muscle car era is the most interesting phase in car-dom. It will not be repeated in my mind, yet the V series Caddies are quite interesting. The retro look is in (in my mind)! You may recall when Motor Trend combined Corvette ideas into a future Eldo. The rendering (on the cover) was better then any GM car they've made yet...truly would have been a good move
