The only worthy 80s G-Body was black and had a little 6 cylinder. There is my snobbery.

Nice! A buddy of mine still has the silver '88 he bought when he graduated college. It's a garage queen now, all original and under 60K miles.

Yes, I almost wrecked one with an X on the end. Sideways on Rt1 looking at the guardrail... I SOOOOOOO want to put that powertrain in a 77 280z but a 5SPD is near impossible on the Turbo231. 6.5#s per horsepower :smokin: :humpty: :hee: :bo:

Rich - seriously, nicely done. Did you apply any of your own mad paint skills? is there a translucent squid around the trunk key ;) ?

PRBuzz, there's plenty of room in the trunk for everything I need. but don't think Ill ever leave it parked along the ditch even w/ an alarm in it, I'm back to my old habit of Parking far away from everyone. might make a run down to Cape was told there's a cruise night there ?
GOOD LUCK GOOD FISHIN:gh:

John, the extent of my PAINTING skills went into spraying BLACK -UNDERCOATING in the Trunk :uhuh: I couldent do or they wouldent let me do the undercarrage:smash: cause I would have &^%$#@ it up. which was ok w/ me. I did spray section in the center:bounce: which the drive shaft covers:rotf2: heading to KIMBLES ICE CREAM Friday night should be 100 or so cars there if it dont rain.

GOOD LUCK GOOD FISHIN:gh:
