First of many times on the hoist I'm sure.

Just a through Underbelly clean up to remove any salt left over from it's years on the Eastern seaboard. Only light surface rust on some frame parts, but it's in VERY VERY VERY good shape underneath.

Evap tray is still solid as well. It'll get pulled and Hammerited to keep it solid. More pics to come.
 
I never drove it in the snow, and it was garage kept most of the time I had it.

Oil pan start rusting but got sanded and rustoleum'ed. YES, that's a word. I just created it.

Hub Swap, Brakes and Sensor lowering done.

Rear hubs, Brakes, Delrin, and Swaybar go on next weekend.


These are all parts I had sitting around the shop than came off of the 95 that won't be going back on it.
 
Mike, it looks awesome! I'm glad to see it getting the much deserved upgrades!
 
That looks GOOD with the boyds on there. They go well with the base chrome trim..just needs some tints and clean up the headlights.
 
Damn those boyd coddington wheels look great on a green car!


I need me some cobra brakes :(
 
I really like the Junk Yard Dogs, those are the rims I'm going with when I get everything else done. Much better looking on that car than the cobras
 
dang. that car went under the knife quick!
so post hub swap, what are the plans for the old cobra r wheels?


Damn those boyd coddington wheels look great on a green car!


I need me some cobra brakes :(

Yes Rich, I'm cracking the whip. :)

LSC Trim to be re-painted and installed.



We also have New(ish) carpet installed in the trunk (from a CD-Changerless car) Glitch ballast installed, new window and door Lock buttons installed.

We may even title the damned thing so it can be driven here in a bit.
 
You should paint the outer trim of the original grille and leave the vertical bars chrome like ultimatesvt did with his BOB 98..looks hot that way!
 
I think these bodies look best with no chrome in any color
 
no chrome on the gen 2s ever.

but an all white gen 1? umm, no. just isn't right. the black works, and probably the other darker colors, but a white grill and trim on a gen 1 is no good.
 
VIN verification is done. Car is titled and insured.

Hoping to put some miles on her this springs and summer. Texas, Boscobel, Oregon.....
