Ohh well I am looking for pretty much only a shell lol I just want a car with no rust, no dents, windows still intact & just basic stuff like that. I wanna put a whole new engine, trans, rear-end, etc & redo the entire interior sooo yeah hopefully it won't be too hard to find something but it seems like it'* hard to find a 84 SS in general. Oh man that sucks, where do you live? My dad use to be one of the biggest street racers around here back in the day but I try to resist that lol.

I live in Maine, your better off where you are to find one rust free, here rust is a fact of life, i rember back in the day a freind of mine had a 86 with a 454 in it, guy could not keep rear ends in it, he had to custom make his headers, car would pass anything but a gas station, i had a regal T type and i couldnt keep up with that monster.

We used to crusie a strip in Bangor called Broadway, then moved it to the downtown area, very small compared to any major city, dont tell that to alot of the folks that live in Bangor they think its a metroplolitin city, the police would come in the area around 11pm every friday and sat night right on time and schedual so we knew when they would show up and be all good little nice boys, hudge change now with all the toyota'* , honda'* and neon'* running around with lowerd suspention kits, a sound system that cost more then the car and all kinds of diffrent lights and of course the sound muffler that makes em sound like a popcorn fart in a coca cola can lol

Man that sucks, rust can get pretty bad here. Just depends on how bad our winters are & all. Nicee, idk if I wanna go all out with a 454 or if I wanna do the same setup as my dirt race car with the 406 in it. I still got time to decide though. Man that sucks, those ricers are always ruining things lol the cops are really strict around here too, on Friday & Saturdays around here (especially when the schools are having events going on) the cops are everywhere & they will bust you for anything & everything! I hope to invest in a radar detector eventually
