Figured it was about time I made a thread for the whore that steals all my money.


And I think I'll start at the beginning...
In August 2010, ater grenading the Transmission on my Cavalier Z24, it was time for a new car, so as I combed through the vast world wide interwebs, i stumbled upon a 1999 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP, at a Dealership, with 81,926 on the clock and in immaculate condition. the car ended up being at a BMW dealership of all places... after some debating, and me telling them that they could shove the $800 'documenting fee' in a particular place, I drove her home.
Paying cash makes life easy ;)

The First day:

Soon after, then came the red:

Thats about the time when my crew first came together:

Eventually the Coolant and Oil decided to mingle and become friends which came the dreaded LIM gasket install which i ended up cleaning everything and replacing everything there was!
All this regained power envoqued something i like to call "Racecar mode!" and thats when Jenny got her name.

As that all settled down then came the Infamous dent.

(in a nutshell, put it in 'park' ran inside, came back out and the car was down the street and into a tree and thats the resulting damage.)
Which I later followed up with some primer and some Taillight tinting with a personal Flair

Then came the wheels..
was planning on Plastidipping the spokes black, but i love how close to a color match they, so silver they stay.

then figured it was a good time to take her down the strip for our first time, and to also establish a decent baseline before the bigger mods come.

For a stock GTP, don't think i did too bad, and i told myself i wouldn't leave there without breaking into the 14's.
& just incase your wondering... I beat a foxbody.

Summer came around again. and I experimented with electrical tape lol

Nice car man! I really enjoyed reading all of that too, and just curious....was it hard to get under that bridge by the train tracks? Lol
 
i have a few more pictures from that photo op.

but yes.
its right next to highly active NJtransit lines, so it was a quick in-&-out sort of deal lol
 


why does it feel like I was there for all of this thing? oh wait...I was. Especially the LIM where it sat in my drive for weeks on end. and the ideas of your taillight tinted words...and and and...














<3 the car though
 
Like i said man, it she definitely would not be where she is today without a lot of help from my GPF and JC3NJ family!
 


Got stickers custom made from reflective concepts then tinted over them, and pulled them off
and the Fusebox badge is off a '77 GP
 
"i love you, jenny"- forrest gump.
lolol nice car man, i like the sticker inside the car that says 'rules for the passengers'
