do you mind me asking how much a paint job like that will run you on a trans am, I got my s-10 painted, but thats a mini truck, not a trans am, I want to get a color like yours, never see them, probably because they didnt paint it that way eh? lol Anyways, beautiful car!

So did you buy a new car, or did you rebuild the other original car?

That is an awesome color and the bird is nicely done. Very tasteful and it blends with the car well.

Nice man. Looks really good lowered. Stock height, even with 17s is just no good.

What are you planning suspension wise?

LOOOOOVE the color Dave, but I liked the Formula bumper and spoiler better. Never been a fan of the T/A rearend, but as long as you like it thats all that matters!
