[zeeman]

+ 11billionty!

[mcalus]

Good thing you know a good paint guy!

Yeah but I don't want to risk cracking any of the filler in the quarter.

+ 11billionty!

Thanks lol. I was jelly of your hood until i got this one



This is why we use a hard block kids.



Put another 3 coats of primer on it, also I got the grill out today in 1 piece! Score!

So, I'm back to bring extremely bored with this car again.

I thing my biggest problem is that I enjoy working on it more than driving it. Why? That doesn't help me financially either.

It's back up on Craigslist, well not that it really ever left but for a short period of time.

Bummed.

I'll still be painting the ss hood. Go from there.

I have also thought about getting a new head and cam package from lloyd but it's only matter of time that I'll be bored with that.

lsx swap and dash swap andd maybe even do a ttop swap!!!

I understand being bored with a car. I loathe driving my fusion even though its a great car i have to keep convincing myself its worth putting up with

Here's what id do if it were my car, if youre looking for some inspiration:

I think the SS hood and a factory front bumper will do wonders for the look. Also gloss black grille area with a bodymatched bowtie and fog lights. Paint a black manta stripe on the SS scoop, a black hockey stripe on the sides and berger panel to compliment it. I like that purple but i think it needs a little more to contrast against to really pop. Roof and wheels are a good start.

For me personally i have to like the look of a car before i can even begin to care about horsepower and everything else. Unless its strictly a race car.

Enjoy yours, repaint mine! Lol

I appreciate the help Joel, especially coming from you. Only thing I don't agree with you on is the hockey stripe. Never personally cared for them. Bumper is definitely needed I just don't want to pay the price for a brand new oem one. I need to find a good condition take off.

Enjoy yours, repaint mine! Lol

Haha I'm more picky about painting other people's stuff than I am my own. And I'm damn picky with my own stuff.

lsx swap and dash swap andd maybe even do a ttop swap!!!

I'll buy a 98-02 before I do an ls swap. Or turbo mine before an ls swap. I still prefer a 98+ front end over the lt1s.

Ttop conversion has definitely been on my mind. It's not like I don't have the tools to do it lol

[JoeliusZ28]

Talk to Devin im pretty sure he is clip swapping the LT1 roller he bought.

Have a lt1 front bumper laying around?

[landstuhltaylor]

Yes I've got a black one

[mcalus]

Yes I've got a black one

Sending you a pm.

[mcalus]

I have been watching a bunch of ttop videos this morning hmmm....


Also I am thinking of doing this to my tails. thoughs?

I think that if you can pull it off just like 6LE it will look great, anything else and it will be a huge step back.

Is your car setup for that style or LT1 style?

If I could find some candy corn...

Ha. If i can pull it off like him.

I have the LS1 style now. I never should of gotten rid of my lt1 style. I envisioned something better with the ls1 style (or 97-02 if you prefer)

Current:


Old LT1's
