[ST1G]

guys please give me a chance to do this i have my own plans once i am done then make fun of it lol

Calling your car a "whip" is still a thing?

Your chance was revoked when you called it a whip.

aww what an idiot this guy is! omg! those eye brows! that center console is hideous! too much red! paint the trim black! you paid 6k!? i wouldn't have paid more than $500 for this piece of shit!
Hey everyone let's get the Banhammer out!

Dam, 6k for that, I wouldn't though. Who the hell paint their whole car with the black molding on? Lets hope it is not a half ass paint job.

The car will look good at the end though. I have faith in you.

who is going to keep our "oh man, if only this were on the right coast bro" post frequency in the F/S section?

Nice looking car and a good deal at $6k. EAD.

[robrez]

Judgment reserved considering you got 9K to play with and a parts car. In any any case, you can't go that wrong considering the relatively low mileage and if all the maintenance/mods were done right.

I wouldn't have paid anywhere near $6k for that, but if you're happy, that is all that matters. Hopefully the respray was decent considering nothing was pulled off when it was shot.

I have all red tails if you're interested...

Also euro trim would look nice on there and help with the contrast...

[abrokenframe]

All the shit people are complaining about is insignificant compared to what really matters when you are buying a 25+ year old car.

Don't let the negative vibe get to you. Definitely a worthy car under that red trim!

And where does it say this car was $6K?

Bruh, you need straight pipes and a magnaflow then the thing will scream broooooooooooo as you roll down the street with the all red everything. I wouldn't be surprised if someone had their period on the back carpets, but nonetheless you wouldn't know because everything is red

You're trying too hard.

Clean shell, clean paint = win. The rest are just minor details that can be fixed in a half hour in the classifieds section of this very forum.

Does your rear ski pass actually go through to the trunk? And have any more pics of that rear deck?
Nice find at 120k miles-these are really getting to be smart investments

Have to say all that matters is that if you are happy with your car then that's what counts - you will have your own ideas about what you want to do with the car and how to make it your own - if the body is sound and its spot on mechanically the rest is superficial and can be easily changed to suit your tastes. Its the best colour (in my eyes anyway) and I love biscuit coloured leather. All the very best with it and the main thing is to enjoy your car :-)

i hope everyone knows that this wasn't a cheap repaint with everything on. the car was Bronze before and everything was stripped and taking off to do a legit paint job with high quality paint. guy works at a paint store and he does paint jobs on the side. So if it was really cheap you'd see the bronze on inside of hood and trunk and by the door sills. and more.

thanks guys, for the support it's going to be a fun project and maybe i did over spend a little bit. its all good you live and you learn i was tired of not having one and it seems to be nice and i like it. so i can't ask for much. did the trim today looks great but havent done the front... it isn't unclipping easily and afraid of braking anything. any advice would help me out a lot
