Default Thanks badpewter-z

Thanks Keith for getting me the items I needed to touch up the GTO. It's all set for now and looks 10 times better.

Perhaps now I can start modding, instead of fixing stuff!

The rear was tough to get the paint nice and smooth, but looks nice and clean from a far. It still has the 5.7 on the other side. I like it but I haven't decided whether I want to put the GTO back on or take the 5.7 off! I'll have to take pics and post them here.

I can get canned.
I could have a job for 2 more months.
I could be here for good.

I just wanna know what's happening so I can plan around it. Possibly get the GTO as well. I also want out of here, this place is a headache.

Didnt mean to high jack your sh*t Sleepy.

Looks great, now you just have to put that STS kit on there.

Keep the rubber side down.

No STS this time around. I don't think anyhow. I am currently trying to sell the kit. If all goes as planned I may be purchasing a rear end kit for the GTO with 3.91's tonight from Austrailia. Then the future plans are hopefully a Procharger @ 7psi or so. . .
