Looks great, those rims don't always look good on fbodies, but they look awsome with yours. Not sure if its the color that does it for me or not

Guys, guys, thats not Sunset Orange Metallic... Its Sunburst Orange Metallic... Off the 30th Grand Am's... A lot brighter than SOM.

This car was totalled off with only 2000 miles on the clock... Its been a year and a half project, so its good to see it done.

Its a while top.

No, it doesn't have subframe connectors, planning on building some this winter for it.

I doubt it will make it down to Bowling Green, money's a little on the tight side right now.

Thanks for the kind words!

Well I probably shouldn't say this but it's not that hard, just make sure the suspension is loaded during fabrication.

I have a blemished set that could use some slight rework if your interested email me

I like the color. And with the white top it really stands out. Of course the TTII wheels always look good. Do the brake calipers match? I can't really tell what color they are. [Cool]

Whoever said you couldn't run away from your problems obviously wasn't driving an SS.

Hey, yep the brake calipers are Sunburst Orange as well. As well as the intake, valve covers and water pump. I guess I should take some under hood pics. Looks pretty good. Oh yeah orange STB and SFC's when they're built. I was a little worried about how the white top would look, but right now I really like it. I'm planning on getting chrome decals and what not for it, and I want to get a few other pieces as money will allow.

DGOETZ, I'd be interested, but shipping to Canuck land would be probably pretty crazy. I've seen your SFC's and they're very nice looking.
