Default Since I didn't get a certain GTP I had in mind .....

I decided to go with a chamelion/teal 1997 SSEi -yes, Ryan'* SSEi only one year newer). More extensive damage than the GTP cosmetically, but I believe I'll like this one better.

I'm picking it up Saturday, and it'll probably take about 1-2 months to put it all together (depending on if my 1990 SSE sells soon enough).

Anyhow, here'* what I got for pics -sorry, camera phones aren't the greatest for taking detailed pics.

Ok, so which of you guys can I 'steal' from Gordy on weekends?

Sonoma Zr2 -I'll be passing your way when I pick it up -it'* in Balaton -about 20 miles from Marshall.

I have the bumper (in color), air-bags, coolers w/fans, core support, and windshield all lined up.
Will need tires, and will be doing ceramic brake pads (considering just getting some torquestars and using the stock laces for some slicks -but that'* down the road -for right now I'm focusing on putting it back together).

The 1990 is more stylish and better optioned than my Lesabre, but the color and power of the 1997 wins -hands down. I do have to admit as nice as I like the 1992-1999 body, the 1990'* sharp corners and tasteful ground effects (for the time) it'* a toss-up.

Sweet!!!!! Sounds like a plan. I'll see if I can get a 6 AM start with the van and tow dolly so I can be there by 8 AM (at the car) and as soon as it'* loaded I'd love to snoop around the scrap yard.

BTW, send me your # again -I forgot to save it.

Considering the fact that was back when I was in seventh grade...yeah, it seems like a lifetime ago for me. Makes me really happy that cellphones have come a long way .

Love the car, even if it does look like a project for now. I noticed the hood wasn't on your list...that looks like the one thing that will make all the difference. Just a random question, for that color do you have to find everything already painted in it or can you repaint to match like any other color?
