TurboNova Posted February 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 yeah im really going for the cheapest all around budget build and giving it some better looks. I know soft 8's proly arent the best wheel or lightest for that matter but for 50 bucks a piece you can beat the orange blacked out car look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig71188 Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 (edited) Love the second gen F-Bodies ('79 nose/tail - not so much). May I recommend your search "Fire-Am" for some ideas on what can be done? I may also have the two sticks of rear window trim you are missing, and if you are not going to use the 455 in the car - let me know, I might be interested...

TurboNova Posted February 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 yeah I sure will, I will be getting rid of it this summer along with the turbo 400 behind it. I love the tail, cant really stand the nose So far the vision for the car will be left orange for a while since the paint is clean and the money can be spend on performance stuff Change the nose to a 77/78 because it looks the best and is the least amount of work to change Black crager soft 8 wheels either 17's with fat tires all the way around or 15" wheels with a 275 dr on the back Lower the suspension so it has alot better stance and level I really want the black side pipes with tinted windows and black trim, my only down side would be ground clearance and burned legs. But if would be super cool with twin turbo 5.3/6.0 if each down pipe just went to the side pipes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evil8 Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Those front ends aren't terrible. That one would improve with the front ground effects on it. Tangelo Pearl? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustlestiltskin Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Yeah Im thinking about this look what does everyone think about it? soft 8's and i do really like the side pipes if the car had tinted windows and black powedercoated window trim. and obviously lower the car down http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y216/1972nova/soft81.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y216/1972nova/CROP.jpg and here is a quick vid of the car running right now See, now if you turn that car to look like one of these 2 it would be amazing.
