What did you do to your G-Body today? [2019]

[Injectedcutty]

I had to hammer the primary by the upper control arm and well as by the lower control arm mount on mine

Do you have stock upper arms? If so they are thicker than the BMR tubular units. I'll go out to the shop in a bit and see where clearance is needed.

They are stock. Also I’m using metaltek mounts which I don’t think has me set back as far as you are. I’ll be swapping to UMI arms soon. On my other cutlass I had Spohn arms and had a ton more clearance.

Finished welding and grinding the hood, put the first skim of filler down. Then sat and stared at the car while drinking a beer trying to figure out what I am going to do with the paint.....then had another beer....then turned off the lights.

Wrapped it out in 1st gear, shifted into 2nd, and let off, then 3rd.

And my power steering started working again.

Ah, the ol Italian Tuneup. Never fails.

She's looking good, I am a fan of that color. What are you leaning towards?

Thanks. I love the colour as well but it’s in need of some touch ups and a dent fixed on drivers door from some a$$ that broke into it. Tried having paint mixed and both times it didn’t match. Was told because of the pearl. I am kinda leaning towards a satin/semigloss black or if I can get the same dark blue metallic in satin that is the other option.

Just noticed the color of yours.....that is what I was thinking. That or black.

I was going to say a buddy of mine had a Cutty your color and said that mine was pretty close to the flat version of it.

I started to clean up the mess that is my engine bay. This is just with citrus degreaser, microfiber cloths, a plastic bristle brush, and a "bucket-o-towels." She also has new plugs, wires, pcv valve, and air filter. I made and crimped my own battery, starter, and alternator cables- upgraded to 2 AWG and 4 AWG as well. Added a new powermaster 150 amp alternator too- just for good measure.

It’s a pretty cool color. I want to do something a little different so who knows what it will end up.
