Trans Am restoration
I figured some of you guys would enjoy this. The car is already sold, I got $8,500 for it and bought a 99 WS6. About to start one a 70 fastback though. Here is the build thread, and yes I did find an insurance company for the WS6 lol:
So yeah, I was looking for another car to play with since I didn't have anything to spend my money on and fell in love with the looks of second gen T/A's, plus being 16 I can't get insurance on a newer SS or T/A. The insurance company literally said no. I am about 4 months in to the project, half that time it sat for body work though. I think I have $3000 into the car plus $2500 for the car itself.
So far:
Completely new brakes
Fresh paint
New interior
S/E Decal kit and hood bird
Rebuild transmission
bunch of little stuff
Enjoy the pictures...
After being buffed..
And after getting the decals on. The last picture I ever took of the car, God damn I miss it...
This is what I bought after I sold it. I needed a new daily driver badly because I hated the Camaro since it was soooooooo slow.

Lol I'm sorry I live in Mexico.. There fun guys to work with though, it's a blast. Were always throwing fire crackers under the restroom door or playing pranks on each other.
I sure miss that car though, it was so fun picking up girls that were like 35 and I was 16 lol..
