    Hmmh, Love my SSIIIs but . . .

    This may, or may not help, but here is a picture I took of a grand national that has these wheels on it. They look good in my opinion by they aren't the size or color you are thinking of.

    BUILD THREAD 88 Poncho Powered Monte SS

    Well finally made a little progress. It's taken me a lot longer to get to this point than I thought it would. But I got the front frame cleaned and painted and it's about ready for reconstruction once I get the new springs. While I had/have it all torn apart I cleaned and painted the firewall. I...

    BUILD THREAD 88 Poncho Powered Monte SS

    Well, made a little progress today. I pulled the front clip and motor and transmission out. Didn't get any pictures of it with the motor out but will tomorrow. I plan on pulling the front suspension and power washing the frame and cleaning up and getting it ready for paint.

    Clean8485 - I knew you weren't trying to start an argument. I was just putting out there why I was doing what I was doing. I may put a little more thought towards keeping the 200r4 in it. It may be something that I will do in the year coming up since I may need the th350 back for the Grand...

    BUILD THREAD 88 Poncho Powered Monte SS

    Thanks for all the compliments. I am pumped to get this car done. Mrockatansky - I had the same issue, I looked at the UMI parts for months and couldn't bring myself to pull the trigger and buy them (I usually use dirt track or make my own parts) but I am soooooo glad I did. The quality of the...

    BUILD THREAD 88 Poncho Powered Monte SS

    Clean8485, I have thought about building and running the 200r4 but have heard that (without a ton of money) can't handle much torque. Plus all the parts I have are fresh and ready to go. I have 3.42 gears in the rear I built. Once I get it all together and see what it tachs at on the highway, I...

    I have been on the forum here for a while, but haven't really posted much. I have had several different g-bodies over the years but am finally getting around to building a good car! I had a 85 SS that I daily drove for a while and tinkered with and made little improvements here and there but it...

    78-80 GP & Bonneville hoods.

    Has anyone ever seen the aluminum hood before? I have heard of this legend but never seen one :) I'd love to get my hands on one for my 80 :)

    pontiac engine with a/c

    All the brackets I used on my 400 were stock brackets off of a 301. Everything lined up perfect and it had plenty of support and didn't look too bad, they are cast aluminum. If I remember I will snap a picture of them when I get home

    pontiac engine with a/c

    I had mine mocked up on my 80 but never finished hooking it up. When I rebuilt my motor I pulled everything off to drop weight and clean the engine up a little bit. It had the smaller compressor not the long old one. What parts do you need for yours? Thanks Tom
