Had a little trouble with the flash so pictures are a little dark.

Since picking up the car I added the rockers. A buddy of mine help prep and paint the rockers. Also added was 17" Konig rims. 235 front/245 rear for rubber. I had to put on some Chevy valve covers also. I also had some nifty little polished aluminum emblems made for the sides and back. Didn't really get a good picture of these though.

looks good, i seen the car at robs, when he was putting the rockers, on how'd hey turn out,? i heard your paint color was kind of an "odd Breed" do they match well? or did you have left over paint from when they did the car? looks good needs to be a little lower

$Rich$ -
Yeah the paint was an oddball. It isn't yellow but it isn't orange either. But I had the code from the original paint job and they matched it perfectly. I have a GT steering wheel that is going on just haven't got to it so thanks for the offer. And as far as the lowering goes, I lowered it 1.5 but I do agree another .5 - 1 inch would have been better

Like Archie said , The rails leaked so we put different ones on. Once the South Dakota winter finally makes it's mark on us I will be getting these polished again. But for now I am having way too much fun driving this thing.

That makes sense I was just wondering. I am the same way. I have a few winter projects(paint, coil overs etc.) But don't plan on putting the car down until they start putting out salt.

Thanks, Oh and let me tell you about salt. Kind of an understatement here in good ole South Dakota. We get a little hint of snow or sleet and they just don't put "some" salt on. They put dump trucks on and I am not stretching this any. Well maybe a little.

i hate SALT, my car has "cancer" because of the state of new york. the guy i bought mine from was from liverpool ny and i think that he made a 1"think coat of salt on the fiero and decided he didnt like the frame. its icky, but now its back here in the south in SC where it almost never snows and we use sand instead of salt.
