were did you get the stripes?Gutlass said:Well, I think its about time I do an update. lol havent done to much it but fix some of the rust on the roof, new wheels, rally pac, and new rear. For the rust repair I went for the quick cheap fix and used fiberglass. The reason i did that is cause i needed to fix it quick since the leak was getting worse, plus I'm still looking for a donor for a t-top roof or i'm kinda thinking of doing targa top style roof( that'll be pretty hard tho).Here are some pics of the roof fix, i think i did pretty good for the first using fiberglass.
the previous owner had "fixed" with fiberglass sheets and bondo lol
i just cleanded it up also added that anti-rust(forgot the name, the spray that converts the rust) spray and left it over night
Still need to finish it off with bondo then i gotta do the rest of the body work hoping to paint by november
This is how she sits now with the wheels. The wheels are stock 19's from a 7 series BMw on ebay they go for 1300 i got mine with brand new tires for 200 which the only reason i put then I'm still looking for nice 17's
they are 19x9 in the front and 19x10 in the back so they have a nice staggered look
and for the rear i got a 7.5 with 3:73 and eaton posi , Also got a ls1 camaro rear disc's that I'm going to install when i change the bearings on the rear.
Let me know what you think.
Out with the old..
In with the new!
Installed my new(to me) seats came out an is300 we got at my job its black leather and suede, got both front and back. Only managed those crappy cell phone pics because I forgot my camera at home but I'll snap some today and post them up later
Also did a lil photoshoot yesterday with my brother's Hellaflush civic after we did a Si front disk swap on it.
I also got a new daily so I can finally finish the cutlass
Its a 2000 Tahoe Limited, I dont know if you guys know how rare these are but they only made ONE per chevy dealer!

I'd be careful with those BMW wheels. BMW wheel pattern is 120.0 and the G body is 120.9 so they don't fit properly and put the wheels studs under stress
im diging your bros rims i like those xxr 527'sGutlass said:Out with the old..

looks good man .im envious, i always wanted to do a 4 or 5 speed gbody but havent had the means yet. maybe one day 
after seeing the roof i dont feel nearly as bad about the little bit of rust on my wagon. the repair came out good. keep up the good work.p.s. i am SOOOO anti honda it s not funny, however i can respect anyone who is passionate about there toy even if its a ....honda. p.s.s. those rims on the honda do make it look mean as hell!
