i took the whole entire air box out i left the piece of tube with the sensor on and just put a aftermarket air filter on it because the 93-97 hood wont close with the air box there u might be able to get the air box from one of the 93=97 and make it fit but all the front clip parts bolt right up just need the bumper reinforcement i had to cut the things on the side tha hold the plastic hood twist thing i cant remember the name of them it only took me like 3 hours

Ok so when I got this SS the original owner decided to put this vinyl on. Maybe it was ok for some but not for me. So this it what it was to as it sits outside infront of my house right now

The curve under the mirror definitely looks odd. Much better looking without it.

Finally got around to do some work on the car. I did the rear lowering springs, I have Bilstein front and rear shocks coming on tuesday so I will lower the front Wednesday.

here are some photos of how rusted / shot the strut mounts were and the lowered rear.

With a little bit of help the SS was photoshopped to give me an idea what this car will look like in the near future. I still need to fix the wheels, sail panel and roof, and wheels.
