I will discuss the direction of the build a liitle later....

the following pics are from a cell phone, forwarded to my email from the guy who has it for sale.

i will be picking it up tomorrow if all goes as planned....

the little girl in the pic is his daughter, he tells of her using the car as her mirror, lol

i will post up alot more info, my own pics, etc. in the coming days....

the interior is all original....except a after market head unit...very comfy!

this thing is very....very wet!

Sep20_003.jpg

she is a cutie, lol, he,( the soon to be previous owner), says she uses it as a mirror!

the body is very straight... it is hard to find fault with this car...for the price...a steal indeed!!

no hate here bro, i was borned and raised in the inner city hoods, from where the donks were inspired.... i have a love for sooooo many different style rides....

i truly consider a donk to be 6's or better... i will not be going there...lol

i will have after market , large rims on it, and i will be lifting it also....

the paint is not a candy color, but is dripping wet....

i feel this will have no problem turning heads with ease...

if i am strugglin with the respect deserved...

i have 7k on four 15"s that should level the playing field quite nicely!!

oh, and i am sure i will get flammed from some for whatever i do.... np...

i am the one that will be cheesing while rolling in it, lol

i love the g-body style cars from the mid 80's for sure.... we have had a 87 Buick Regal, all white, stock, minus the system and the blacked out windows, my first car!

our fastest was a 85 Buick Regal, it was built ground up, nothing stock, and a very healthy 455 rocket that played some real nice lows through a 3" custom exhaust, lol....

we also have had a 85 Cutlass, with a 350 in it, and the 13" wires!!! we had it totally gutted, ready to do big things, only to trade it off , oh well, it was fun to have too.

the build log will definetly happen....

Nice one chop, hope it works out so you can get it.

I had a 87 Monte Carlo SS. Loved that car. The 305 was impossible to get fast. The pistons were too small, but those HO heads on a 400 small block changed that. lol

Good luck with your build.

well....... it all went through thus far ......

picked it up, pointed out all of the flaws, began planning, made a few preliminary appointments, ordered some intial stuff....

scored some wheels for it....

began the intial , trading and bargining process.....

she will be getting re-keyed tomorrow morning.... trust no-one, lol

then off to the lift shop so she stands up some.....

after that, off to get the alarm and tint installed....

once she comes out of there and gets back home... a quick photo session and then demo time!

good bye guts, hello deadener......

will attempt to locate some buckets and baby bro is ordering up the new lambo hinges....

will cut out and weld in a few things in the rear...

add the "sauna" treatment".... have it ready for a baffle and port.....

this will be measure time.....

then i will do some ordering.....

i really, really, really want the bb v8 , however, will ride this out a little longer.... maybe.....

i am rather sure that there are left and right factory alternator brackets, would love to loose my a/c unit and bolt on another alt....

i will plan on picking tehcurrent's brain some on this one....

trunk is big indeed, just enough room for XK worth of amps, battery bank, cooler and two lawn chairs...IAK!!!

pics will be soon.... hell, i will even post up picks of the new "IAK Lounge Area" (our new deck)

thx for watching fellars

Are you ordering the dust plates on-line? I've been looking everywhere for some locally with no luck.
