It sure looks Bone Stock, nice job, looks good and fast.
Haha, yeah it has a custom RPO code.
Head and cam LS1 built 700r4 3:73 gears it's pretty quick. I've had it for a lot of years so it's been a work in progress for a long time. Still more I'd like to do to it but I've moved on to other cars so it doesn't get much love.

If you can do that, love to see your next project!
Double din wasn't that bad. Just some mild trimming and it fit fine. I still need get the new center panel that's designed for the double din for a "perfect" fit around the face.
The android io board was about $30 best I remember. It allows you to control pretty much anything. I have relays controlled by it and analog inputs to read the sensors on the motor. I didn't get the new display finished to replace the warning lights section in the center of the dash before the weather got bad and I covered the car up for its rest till spring weather. So that will be one of my first projects when the weather warms up.
The display I went with has uv protection and anti glare coating so it should do ok in a car environment. Time will tell on that part.
The android controls sound awesome, where did you get the board and display? If you have display dimensions that would be awesome too, I'm currently redoing my interior and all electronics. Let me know how your project works out, I'm also trying to see if there is a way for me to control the hvac controls from an android device so that I can fit a larger display.
I bought it off the net last year. Several places sell the android io board including the place that makes it.
The screen I found a link to when I was looking at mp3car for ideas. The display unit isn't mounted yet but it is in the car which is covered up for the winter. Plus we are supposed to have a record snow fall today. Well record for Alabama
Once spring gets here I will drag it out back out and finish it and do a howto with links to what I used on my site.
Here's a link to what I have done so far. I don't think I posted any of the android io stuff yet since I count the screen as part of that project so its technically not finished since I don't have the screen installed yet. But it may be on there under mods.
I've posted the story here before, so I'll go with the lite version. This was my Mom's 96; when she passed away about a decade ago, I "adopted" it to ensure it stayed in the family. Bone stock (except line locks and a D44 rear-end), all original (except some touch-up paint on the nose).
I think it's about to hit 30K miles. That's 30K, not 300!
best looking c4 ive ever seen. his thread is incredible.
I agree fully. Hands down the meanest and cleanest C4 in existence. The stance of that car is absolutely stunning. 5ABI VT if you are watching - well done sir.
Ok, as promised here is the list of mods to my “Basically Stock” 1989 C4. It would probably be quicker to stay what was not modified because I don’t think there is anything left that is stock. Also I included a couple of more pictures.
