i plan on completely straitening the body......big dent in door, too many little dings in the trunk etc.
after thats done it will be painted Primer
also looking into a set of 18" wheels and a nice stereo system, maybe lower it some more, just too many little things to list.
but all this comes After i get the motor rebuilt, as it is a little rough. but for $500....i dont think its in too bad of shape. but yeah, a deffinate "project car"

The badges/emblems will be coming off before she gets primered for sure. as for paint, im really not sure yet... it will be a good year or maybe even more before it actually gets painted, that will be the last thing on the to-do list. but i was kinda thinking of going wild with it, maybe like Dupont Antifreeze...or a bright orange, my ideas always change though. oh yeah i also forgot to mention shaving of the door handles, which will be done here in the near future. i just gotta wait for a clear pay check....its almost 5 am, Way past my bed time and im just rambling on now, so ill catch up with you guys later.

Hee hee That would certainly be a good project car.. hubcaps are fun especially when you do the high speed turn and they come flyin off like an old Caddie.. old school movie chase seen style.. and since you have 7 sets of so of them.. go for it.. and get a buddy to film it
