What style are you going for with your gbody?

Resto Mod....

Stock looking interior and exterior, plenty of power with EFI and overdrive underneath.

Wait a minute, I should just buy a Grand National, right? LOL!!!!

I'm into lowrider's. Yeah I know they are probably frowned on here but it's what I like. I'm not into all the radical interior's and paint. I want to keep my car simple, stock(except for the obvious)and clean. I have spent alot of money so far restoring the monte. I'm trying to get everything NOS. I pulled all the windows and replaced all the rubber during paint. The exterior is an orion silver. The interior is all black. I have found all the interior trim in factory black. The only pieces inside that will be dyed are the dash(for now) and the center console. Nothing wrong with dying the plastics but I personally don't like it. The motor was built by me about 5 years ago, the first time is was to restore it. It sat up until August 08 when I started the second attempt on the restore. This time is alot more productive than the first. I was trying to finish the inside and outside before my son was born and do the chrome under carriage after. It doesn't look like that will be possible(sitting at the hospital typing this up, waiting to induce labor) Well I guess that is enough about my car so here is some pics.


my Hid conversion and nos bezels and I know its a 78 grill but its the cleanest one I've found so far.

my little g-body collection

if your talking about the hid's. ebay. depending on what kind of car you have you need to buy the actual housing and then then the hid kit. if you need me to i can send you the link to the light housings and the hid's from the guy I bought them from.

As long as it's not lifted or too garish, I don't mind customs. I like some lowriders if they are not covered in murals and tufted velvet everywhere. BTW, nice Monte!

I'm kinda going Mad Max meets rat rod on the '81 Century. Matte/satin black paint, old Cragar S/S rims, dual exhausts out the side (or sidepipes), and a splash of diamond plate for accent. For the '83 Cutlass, it's muscle/restomod right now, and it will probably stay that way with just a few bits needing to be finished.
