Keep on keepin on! Nice car BTW

Keep it coming! What are the plans?

changing the color to Dark Brahma Jewel (GM code: WA519Q) then keeping the black strip around the bottom. changing out the springs to air ride (these Texas's roads are bad). Swapping out the current rims to the SW6 16" rims, all ready have just trying to find some one who can redo them. Once she gets painted i'm putting the original black carpet and the grey and black dash. I'm thinking about putting in a manual trans in but that is further down the road.

Photo update 

Haven’t posted in a while but my bird should be done with all the body work next week, here are a few teaser pic, she is still a two tone car. I’ll post pic as soon as she is on the trailer to come home. Hopefully there is enough light you guys can see both colors
