LOL the hood wasnt my idea. done way befor I bought the car. I agree it is very ugly. I am doing a 98+ front conversion. I am looking at the SLP ULTRA Z hood right now

 

I am looking at 3 different paint options for this car...

1. Original PPM paint job
2. Original PPM w/ 2 tone (Colors split in half)
3. Totally different color (Im just not sure because they would half to remove the engine to paint the engine bay. might be expencive)

 

looks like fun,keep us tuned in on the progress

 

So I havnt posted any updated since i made this post a couple months ago. I have done alot of rust removal. I will post pics later today

 

x2 It's not everyday we see a "restoration" of a fourth gen.

 

Sry guys I havnt updated this since i said I would









Ill have more pics in the next couple days. Have an ss spoiler coming tomorrow.

The black stuff is painted on after I stripped the entire car of rust.
Its the same stuff as por 15

 

UPDATE: 08-17-07

I have been working on my car alot over the past week trying to remove all of the rust and what not from under the car, Sandblasting and grinding sucks..lol..After all that crap I used my Rust preventive paint, Man is that stuff strong. Supposed to be just as strong as POR 15.

I started to attempt to fix the rear quarter panel that was dented but I think that Im gonna hold off on that and just pay somone to do it, I cant get it round enough like the other side.

The antenna and RS spoiler holes were all welded and covered up. So it will be smooth now

I bought all of the brackets for the 98+ front end conversion this weed so I decided to just Put everything on and see what it would look like. I also need to fix the SS hood that I bought awhile back. The fitment it rough because nothing is really bolted down except for the hood. everything will be coming over over the next month anyway to get realy for paint.

The SS hood was cracked in the front so I cut it out and bought another broken one with a good front to fix mine, Overall I only paid like 300 so its not bad for an OEM SS hood. Fiberglassing that back together will start tomorrow.


Also I bought an AFTERMARKET SS spoiler from ebay a couple weeks back and i am actually quite please with the quality and fitment of it. Comes with everything needed including the 3rd breaklight. All for under 200 shipped.

The entire interior is gutter and painted with the the rust preventive paint.

Enough talking on with the pics.................

 

 

Looking good man, keep up the good work!
