pic of my 80 turbo, getting a frame off resto starting in the spring. will be powered by a 383 stroker, 4 link rear, overdrive trans, lots of other goodies. will be a fun project, hopefully.
I just dug out some old photos and found a picture from 1991. At the time I had four G bodies. The two pictured were an 80 Monte with bucket seats and Landau roof. That one had all the power options, tilt wheel etc. Also had the maroon 78 that was as plain-jane as they come. Both V8 cars. I also had a 78 Malibu and an 87 SS Aerocoupe that was my daily driver. Loved that car! Sorry the pictures not great but it was almost 25 years ago.
Finally got around to snapping some shots of my bucket. Shes a work in progress... When I got the car it was lifted with 24s I have spent some time getting her lowered and handling better but not quite finished. this was after i purchased new tires.
the fender and door aren't too bad they are salvageable. Just looks worse then it really is because of someones lack of experience with bondo. I plan on tackling the body work in the spring, i dont have a heated space to do it in now. I also have quite a few electrical gremlins to sort out too. I'm just happy to drive it a lil bit and enjoy it. I saved it from this terrible lift...
