More shameless pics

In keeping with the recent trend of photos, here is my heavily modded 84 finally back on the road... Feel free to critique and offer suggestions, I have Iroc bumpers waiting to install still and a 3.6 still on the engine stand.

funny to see the G50 torsion tube cap on a 74 carrera look. It doesn't ruin it or anything; only the cognoscenti will notice

beautiful cars, guys!

Looks great. Wheels, tail, ride height, grafics all look perfect. How much better could it get...oh ya. I forgot you're putting in the 3.6. Now it really looks great.

I have to confess, the side you can't see has a small dent in the valance, I will sell you the fogs, but only if you take the valance for free Terry!! I would have gotten black calipers (they are available that way) but Steve only had red in stock and I was in a rush!!
Sushinav, great looking car!

Jeff

Okay, so after the 3.6, what next...... I am thinking roll bar. I have a harness bar but something about being strapped into a hard shell seat and ending up on my lid at a DE has me wondering if a roll bar is not a better option.....

Thanks for the kind comments on the car.

Jeff

Jeremy, you have a beautiful blueish car too don't you? With these and RDanes new color, maybe we should start a blue car thread. Researching colors for mine, I was amazed at how many blues have come and gone over the years.

Good question on the rollbar. I don't think you can go wrong considering more safety equipment. Especially with the abilities for speed your car has already.

Catca, you've terribly heinous things to that once beautiful piece of machinery. I demand you give it to me so I can make the neccesary corrections!

Just kidding. It looks fantastic. I love the subdued look of the Carrera script. It's there, but kinda not. SWEET!!!

Yes, thinking, nothing to look at locally. Whens the next meet ? Like to look at yours in person.
