FINALLY My 93 TA is about DONE! This car was built with most of my spare parts from my 95 TA...And Is FOR SALE (But if you are looking for a smoking deal or cheap car don't even bother to ask, I've got a lot invested and I don't NEED to sell it). Since this is in the Appearance and Detailing section PM if any questions about sale. To see all that is done to the car see my Cardomain site on page 7.

I've always liked the green T/A. And now this orange/black one is growing on me.
I admire your creative ideas on your cars, and your projector headlights on the green trans am are badass! I plan on doing something similar to my ls1 camaro.
Congrats on a job well done on both cars.

Well you guys have pretty much sealed the deal on a decision I have been toying with the last couple days...
I have a 385ci LT4 built by SDPC with Lingenfelter ported LT4 heads & intake, callies magnum crank, don't remember which rods, forged pistons, about 10.5 to 1 CR. I have been considering putting that engine in the 93 with a Moser 9", upgraded fuel system, UMI torque arm, custom tuned chip, and long tube headers. That would all but ensure that I couldn't sell the 93 TA and get anywhere near what I have into it back. It would be a fun car with about 700 FWHP and built strong enough to play pretty hard, but the down side is that it would "SLAY" the Green Dragon. I probably wouldn't be able to afford an engine (that I want) for about 2 years. Selling this car is supposed to fund the engine for my 95. I thought most people would really like this car over my 95 just from the color choices, but I'm pleasantly surprised that most are saying they like my 95 better. I of course like the 95 MUCH more, but it's almost a "limes to oranges" comparison just on the amount of custom work to each.
Man I'm cleaver with the little puns tonight...

I actually prefer this one. Love the orange/black combo. The only thing that would set it off IMO would be a black roof instead of the orange hardtop. The stance, wheels, everything is just perfect. What springs and shocks are you running and what are the specs on the wheels?

This 95 looks absolutely GORGEOUS!!! Personallly I like it 1000x's better than the Green one but mainly because I love the unmolested LT1 WS6 look best...
This car is the best two tone F-Body I have EVER seen hands down! Looks GREAT! I think a set (or single) black stripe for the hood or even painting the whole scoop black outlined in the same divider color you have would make it look more finished.
Also, a Charcoal (or same color as the divider stripe) CETA bumper mod would look good as well...
Regardless, you dare to be different and God bless you for it and your great looking cars

The only thing I dont like is how the whole front bumper and fenders are painted, I would have just done the top section like on the rest of the car and do the bottom section black below the body line on the front bumper. Car looks awesome none the less tho!
