ok anyways here begins the story. i accquired the car back in..lol bare with me a lot has happened i want to say december but maybe not anyways went thru a bunch a s*** and at the time was living with a friend borrowing a car and going to work and then got laid off well turns out a 1984 firebird with chev, 350 was way to much to handle(problems)... lol sold it got a job and then about a month later.. i inquired that my friend was backed into and the car got totalled so i go take a look at it looked fine and then i asked a favor and end up getting the car for 800 lol

that was what it looked like.

drove it like that for a while ended up eatting the tires, taking the lowering kit off (turns out there was no camber kit in there hahaha learn what that meant) and selling it for 200 getting a set of 17s for 75 and changing the rear filler and tail light sorry if im skipping im rushing thru to now .lol



go to work and turns up they want it to match so they pay me to paint it haha. so our color matcher matches the color...comes out b****en and i butt shoot the filler.


hahahanoticed i left out my exhaust setup lmao..
brfore and after bought an ebay pos to get by..

i realize now im skipping around haha and have no after picture lol

that was the befroe lol..

so some time goes by i buy a decklid and spoiler.. paint it with the custom matched paint but shot it again




end up losing a corner light on the road lol found someone selling ambers



found some headers on cl and get an intake.lol

welcome, from a few hours north! I'm Tyler. Youve made some good progress, it looks good. I would get one piece headlights, get another tail light to make them the same, and lower it; after you have finished all your maintenance stuff of course.

those are some good things i never honestly paid attention to my taillights to notice they were different.. ha
in process of getting a new bumper and lowering kit and then ima paint my wheels and bumper, wheels are going to be a newer acura color its like a carbon gold :D
ilovepainting but it gets expensive even when you have a good discount

What kind of hook-up could you give me on paint? I'm not sure if it's enough to warrant the drive but perhaps if it's good lol.

depends on the color and brand and all that jazz

prolly true with gas and all.:roll:
Paint isn't something you wanna go cheap on after all you get what you pay for, dupont is well worth the money superb quality, solvent based like ppg is a lil easier, but water Bourne is the new standard. Just make sure when you spray to go through all the motions otherwise all sorts of wrong can happen
