Paint is done, car almost ready

and i really owe a huge thanks to my dad for helping with all of this

I hate that generation F-body, and I hate the Pontiac version worse than the chevy version. So I'm speakng VERY highly when I say "unf".

The wheels make it. Great job. Is that the stock color?

Same here. Although I do think you should aim for a panel fit that's a little better than stock on that front bumper.

whats done to the loud rumbly fun part of the car?

i like these WAY more than the coresponding camaro generation...and i love that color man, great choice

I remember him saying that it is a stock Audi color off an Audi TT. The color does look very good.

I'm in love!

Very sharp looking. :thumbsup:

In reply to Tom Heath:

Wow. Just Wow.

Yea...I should bolt it up without wiring anything back up right?

And thank you guys! It's Audi Nimbus gray off the TT. Not the exact color I wanted but it turned out looking pretty damn good.

Liking everything except the UCF logo in your avatar!

Looks great!

Good job.

Wow, I HATE those cars. Good job on making me actually pull up craigslist and start typing in Pontiac. Me likey.

The wheels are sexy, the paint is sexy, the motor that could be in that is sexy.... my only advice is.. less wheelgap. Pretty sure I could park my wifes' Mini in there. Other than that, she is a gorgeous machine.

That is a really nice looking car. I've wanted one for quite a while, but I can't bring myself into spending more than $50 on an F-Body.

as somebody who is getting ready for paint.... you are making me reconsider my choice in hue

Thanks again for all the compliments guys!

I don't know what could help the wheel gap I already have shocks and springs (Koni SA and Strano Springs). I'll be moving the battery back there in the near future so that could help a little bit but we'll see, not much else is going to change. I've already dropped enough money in suspension parts to build two challenge cars.

People love to hate these cars for some reason, but it is what it is...a muscle car :)

doo it...color is extremely easy to match as well if anything ever happens.

Check Carbon Gray Metallic from Mazda. Only offered it for one year on one particular sub-model of the Mazda3 (and I had one of the ULTRA rare ones with the saddle leather.... less than 1500 hatchbacks made, less than half of that with a manual, less than half of THAT with the saddle leather....god I miss that car.) Where was I now? Oh. Carbon Gray metallic. If you're a fan of charcoal colors like that, this is a color to look at.

Well done sir!!

I don't hate any car I haven't driven. I can't image that beast not being a whole lot of fun.

I drove the camaro SS version of that car. I can say that I hate the generation of F-body just because of the ergonomics. Not that any F-body is strong on that.
