Default New summer project!!!

Well im in college and i still live at home(gotta love mooching off parents haha)

Well i have the two cars in my sig, the 94 z28 runs, but is in fairly bad shape cosmetically, interior and exterior.

Well my parents are making me get rid of my 99 shell which is in very good shape and has t-tops, so i am just going to switch everything over from the 94 to the 99!

Then i can scrap the other body, its mostly bondo anyway, hopefully i can get enough to buy a tank of gas XD

I know i have heard swaps are a bitch, but i have already unhooked all the wires from the v6 harness and removed the dash, and as soon as i get the tractor back i will remove the entire v6 k-member(engine, tranny, and everything included)

From where i stand, the hardest part looks like running the wires properly and making it look good.

Lol thats awsome, i knew one guy did the swap from a 94 T/A to a 98 Bird, never heard if he had it running good after he pulled the engine the 3rd time, good luck!

He also had to swap over fuel lines and tank.

from what I understand just about everything needs to be crossed over. Like body harness and the whole nine. Definitely doable, but you're parents are really gonna love you for killing another car to make one final one. lol GL!
