Hey Guys,
I am new to the forum! WEll lets start off by saying i am a mechanic! But not really a car buff! I was trained as one but this was recently and do not know car down to the science like most on here! But I have a 86 Gran Prix that was given to me by my grandfather and i decided to come here in order to revamp the car and turn it into a good looking car (running good as well). I am not trying to "TRICK" the car out i only want to restore it to good running condition and make the car look nice so that it i take it to any car shows it wont look like a piece of "junk" compared to the other "Tricked" out car. As i understand this car is now an antique and i want to get suggestion on how to make the car look alot better then it does now! I would like to know the average price on doing something with the roof such as: T-topping the roof, installing a sunroof, or making this bad boy a drop top. Light options, a great pair of nice shoes to put on it no rims ( i want factory size spokes)! Really I would like suggestions of how YOU would like to see this car to make it look better! I will take suggestions and combine them into what i think will look nice! I will provide picture of the car in about a week or so when i go to put the car in the shop and but it is a 86 Grand prix coupe "factory grey" has alittle rust on botton due to tires deflating and sitting in grass over years. Inside is a sort of burgundary red and needs a tad bit of work but was kept up pretty well! Pictures and any suggestions will help with the process and when i get done i will provide you guys with the finish product! hopefully it wont take that long to fix up!
