Well I grew up with very little money so i've learned to make things work with what I have.... i've been wearing the same clothes since my sophomore year in high school but I choose to fix this instead lol

The driver's side fender is almost ready for long-strand body filler

Looking good! With all this work on this thing I hope you plan for an L67 swap or something lol

My brother wants me to drop an LS1 into it lmao

Ls1 swap.

Do eeeeeeet.

Great work, feels good to fix rather than take the expensive easy route. Wish I had body work skills. Subed for moar.

Lol if anyone wants to donate a trans or an engine and trans i'm not complaining cuz my transmission is shot for the time being.

Well if you want you can take my rear bumper off and prep it for paint cuz i still gotta do that yet.... come to think of it i still gotta feather-edge all the rock chips outta my hood too and send that over while i'm at it...

First part of the patch is ready for body filler.

LS1 swapped would be a huge undertaking. Plenty of other fun FWD drive engines you can swap in.

I know my little brother just wants me to go all or nothin lol

Sadly can't work on her til january cuz today and tomorrow are clean up days... but might try to pick up a few things over the winter break if I have the money

3800 turbo will do just as much as you need for your car to be insanely bad ass. An LS1 would be crazy but you would just be eating transmissions like candy.

Yea I wanted to do a 3800 supercharged swap but the turbo sounds just as awesome lol

At the end of the day if you want a monster engine a turbo is the best for the dollar. A mild to moderate build a supercharger is fine.

.... a turbo would be nice... just a matter of finding one and getting everything done mildly cheap :/

Well this is the last i'll see of the poor girl until january 7th.

Woohoo painted parts!.... and more repairs.... dammit! But she's getting a brand new paintjob and when she's done she's getting a new transmission tires and brakes. And in six months a nice buff and shine








And now new repairs...

Looks good I hope you have a nice spot to put the painted parts so they stay safe until the rest of the car is done. Looks like you still have quite a bit of work left before painting the body.
