Spring is here yet again. Another year of spending money, and doing something different. Since I plan on making the 25th show with a "finished car" (Cross your fingers!) I'm going to push the envelope on getting my 87GT out of the garage.
Heres where we left off...
The drag radials are obviously just sitting next to the car, I need to find out if I can use them on the fiero even (The tires , rims are 5x120.7 from my 87 GTA Trans Am.). 275/50R15 BFG. I have 18"s for the rear, but they take forever to get here from japan! I hope to have them in by next week (been waiting since dec!) I would really like to be able to use the drags for a few 1/4 mile runs.
Incase you've never seen this car, its an 87GT with a 94' 4.6L Northstar
I'll be working on the interior a little bit today, hopefully at least organize things a little better and get the console / seats / wheel in.
Thats it for now, expect some more pictures a bit later.

It is a good looking piece... It'll be a little better looking once I'd modified it a little bit though.[This message has been edited by Custom2M4 (edited 10-11-2010).]

Amida knew what I was planning on doing to it when I bought the console from him  . Definately a very nice product, but its going to be a litttle better.

Project of the week;
Reinforce the frame on the sides and build new inner fenders.
Heres how thats goin! I hope to have all that patched up by the end of next weekend, including all the rust spots I find. I want to have the northstar / trans back in that bay very soon!
Trying out some 16"s that I just bought....
I think they'll suit the pontiac vibe a little better .
Like always I like to hear comments!

The black ones are eleventy billion times better looking, the black ones look mean. The 16s look like solstice wheels.

If you could get your buddy to haul in a driver's side door panel next time he is coming in from Brandon... i'll pay you whatever you need!
Its good to see Ian's car going into good hands... I helped with a lot of the work on that car... hahah... the good work, not the sloppy work!
Cheers

Email Amida (Rob) at fierointeriors@juno.com It may take a bit, but he'll keep in contact with you and it is well worth the wait. I can't say enough about his work. ------------------
