Here are my babies pics.

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.

Hey thanks man, its been alot of work and I still got so far to go... I plan on getting a pontiac 400 from a friend if he ever comes back into town from dallas, or if not I just plan on going with a 350 block, not looking to beat corvettes (yet), just looking for a lil more pick up from hauling around all this weight... Then maybe hit it with another paint job, but to be honest I really love the flat black on her, so plans are to install my cowl hood then paint my (mistress) with 2 more coats of the same color. I gotta post pics of the things ive done since getting her and things that have been planned to be done in the future.
Hey 85gplef41 Im free all weekend lets do this... 8)

Thanks again Im gonna have to go and get some more pics when I can, its ready to rain today so thats a no go, but I will mos def keep you guys posted with more pics and info. :wink:

Thanks alot lemo, and smf.... Im planning on updating my stereo this weekend and I will post some pics of that too, I love to work on this car all the time, so now im in the market for a rear end with some 3.73 gears so if anyone hears anything please chime in and let me know, Im hearing that will at least wake up the 3.8 in there... But honestly I have had no problems with the motor (knock on wood) except for it really being a weak motor, so I might keep it in there for a lil while longer, plus I save on gas right now.

I got a friend that want to trade me my 22s for a decent set of MB old schools that would most def put this where I want it, they are on his regal right now the rear are 19x9 and the fronts are 18x8... Just waiting on him to let me know when and the 22s are gone, unless somebody has a nice set of 18s they are willing to trade??? Just keeping it out there just in case this falls through....
