Oh boy you are going to jinx yourself!!!!!

Lol, wouldn't be the first time! Honestly, most of these boxes are my lights and lenses. Some of the other stuff needs to go to my painter's place for final mock up.

Looking good, it always feels good to see progress. Are you going all black? Are they going to paint it together, or does it come apart again?

It's been jammed already, the metal bumpers are going hot rod black to match all the trim, everything else will be this color.....

Being it's a high metallic color, it will be painted mostly together. The bumper covers will come off to get jammed then loosely put back on with the metal bumpers taped off, the monte spoiler will be removed as well.

Awesome! Finally getting it in some color, and that color will look bad *ss!

Thanks Jim! You should know as the wagon is close to the same color! Btw, that car looks sweet!!!! Glad you've been able to drive and enjoy it! As soon as mine is painted it's coming home so I can gut the tune port wiring, msd box, etc and start getting it ready for the heart transplant.

Yeah, I didn't let any dust settle in getting it driveable, and you won't either.

I wish it got done sooner, as I wanted to make a few road trips, but there is next year.

I will definitely have enough to keep me busy for awhile! The front brakes need to be swapped to my new blazer setup, swap the steering shaft.
The LS is complete enough to drop in, just need to source an OD trans, turbo kit, front drive stuff , etc etc etc $$$$$$$$$$$

It's gonna look badass!!! Here are a couple more pics....i posted these pages back but it doesn't matter.

I went with a factory offered color so if I need to touch up stuff in the future I won't have to sell my kidneys to afford a custom mix!!!

Heading off to a huge local car show shortly. Should be 1500+ cars filling up Iroquois Park....usually the G bodies represent well. I will take pics and post em up later!!! It's a hot one today, about 90° out, but I've gotta represent...
