Ok ok, So I know I've been on here for a while now and giving my input on very little but always reading up on you guys projects, So I promise to try and be more involved on here as far as what I know. I even finally got some pics of my car on my pc so here we go...
I am a proud owner of a 86 grand prix that I done all the work myself in my garage (trust me it was a hell of alot!) to get it where it is today, when I first got her, she had been hit on the passenger front fender and tire, so for me to get it home I was at the persons house replacing both the upper and lower a-arms with very basic tools. Reason being was that they didnt know anything about cars and couldnt fix it themselves so there garage only carried a hammer and pliers with 3 different screwdrivers (I sh*t you not!) so I had to bring all that I could from my house. Shes still pretty basic right now (3.8 v sh*t, plain jane trans, and rear) but I plan on changing that this summer.
Im pretty good with a set of tools so after I got it together, I babied it home due to it really needing to be all tightened up, but once that was done I started ripping it apart again.
So my plan is to try and keep everyone updated with info and pics with her progress bare with me folks.
And before you start with the wheel selection I have on there now let me say that they were in my garage for a long time and my oldest daughter said I should do it just for this summer, I still have my A/R wheels and plan to place them back on, but hell I pay the insurance and gas on this car folks, so some will like and some will not.
Just a few, plenty more to come, as I place in my own Sunroof and in the process of relocating my speakers that were in the upper door molds.
Sorry so late in posting people, but give me you honest opinion on different options, im always open to new ideas.
