Hello everyone. My name is David and I live in Ocala, FL. I'm fairly new to this forum. I've been browsing this site for awhile now and finally joined the other day. I've owned my maroon 1983 Pontiac Grand Prix LJ since 2002. My father bought it for $600 and it was my first car throughout high school and some of college. I enjoyed driving it with the t-tops off and the 305ci. V8, although it's not fast by today's standards, it was good enough for me then. Fast forward to today and I currently drive a 2006 Pontiac GTO (Impulse Blue Metallic, 6.0L/A4) which will be getting a Monaro VZ conversion, motorwork, coilovers and CTS-V2 brakes in the near future. The GP has been collecting dust for a few years and I recently got the itch to fix it. It's gonna need quite a bit of work....floor pans, rear bumper and chrome trim, area where the vinyl used to be is developing some rust, new spring for the hood, windshield and below the doors also has some rust. Today, I plan on putting my stock GTO wheels on for the time being.
Plans are: new suspension, GTO seats (from my car as I upgrade to Recaros), different steering wheel, newer gauges, C5 brakes, wider wheels (atleast 18s) , turbocharged 4.8L V8, notched frame...the list is neverending and changing daily. I've been looking around for parts or parts cars for the pieces I need to fix but my searches havent turned up much. Anyway, I hope to learn more about these cars from you all and hopefully find some parts in the "For Sale" section. Thanks!!
