Sh!tstang build

[94gtgb]

I named it Shitstang because when I bought it, it was a POS. But I'm slowly restoring it. When I bought it she was stock, with a butchered exhaust and some horrible 16 inch wheels. So far I've added a full mac exhaust, new struts and springs and 2 1/4 lowering springs, and just basic stuff to make it safe to drive! Been making slow progress, soon it will be a different color, I am on the fence about the hood. Kind of waiting on paint to see how it looks.

how I bought it

rims and tires I paid $100 for

2 1/4 drop sounded good, rides like crap. it is soon to be getting different springs

different exhaust

and my favorite part so far

My 89 gt, before and after

I'm in Florida. This car has been about 3-4 colors, factory red, then a blue, then mystic and this orange which I really do not like. Not 100% on the color, but its in between yellow, black, or grabber blue.

I'm not a fan of the orange (weird coming from me) looks literally like poo poo

Great job so far

Not much progress yet, but got some steeda superlight springs to replace the ebay junk I bought. Getting a door this weekend, alone with some other stuff. Hope to make some progress by next week.

I never even thought about it like that. When I seen the pictures of it online it looked red. I'll be really glad to get it painted, but first I keep finding small problems.

Still a work in progress, it was put off to the side for over a month. We got some work done to it, going slow but I don't care. Went to the LKQ and picked up the gt40 intake, need to go get the heads sooner or later. And settled on a color.

Doing the whole car grabber blue?

 

[94gtgb]

Yes, no stripes just blue. I was thinking about doing boss stripes from a 69-70, but I think I'll like it better as a solid color. The only accent color will be black, I bought the new style 5.0 badges for the fenders in black, the black wheels, tinting the taillights, windows. and doing a full black interior, picked a black dash up for $25.

Go wingless!

 

[CC'S95GT]

American Muscle has a grabber blue display car.

 

[lutter94]

Don't go wingless, paint it black.

 

[Cpotts13]

wingless, slammed with a black roof...

 

[Burninriverdiver]

Excellent paint choice, I am jealous of the American muscle car because of that color.
