Very nice car.

What are your future plans?

Interior?

Sound?

Engine?


IMO I would tint the windows and add some suspension/frame enforcement just because your 60' time is poop.

Nice car.

I think I'm gonna keep the interior pretty stock, I do have a b&m ratchet shifter that I need to install but in no rush to do it. For this car I'm not really doing anything for the sound system, all I have is a cheap pioneer head unit with pioneer speakers. I had an '87 Camaro with a decent sound system, but for some reason third gens don't seem to have good acoustics and it never sounded that great. I sold that system to my friend who had an '89 mustang and it sounded way better in there.

The engine will be cammed this spring with a trans am lt1 cam and some comp cams springs. With the right tuning I could see up to a 40 hp increase. The stock cam is seriously pathetic. Also gonna throw an edelbrock intake. Much later in the future I may do a head swap (lb9 heads, corvette 113s, or world torquer heads). I know most people swap out to 350s (which I will if the 305 needs to be rebuilt), but the 305 suites my needs. I'm really only looking for a 13.5-14 second car.

Subframe connectors are definitely in the future too, just not sure when haha. I'm hoping my control arm brackets fix my wheel hop so I can launch harder. So far my best 60ft is 2.18, it should be close to a 2.00

So how much would you guess you have invested to this point? Good looking car.

He's the king of Craigslist, he's hardly spent anything on it.

Including the price of the car I have a little over $2500 into it at this point, but I also have a lot of parts I haven't installed yet. Now that the weather is getting warmer I'm gonna try to get a lot of work done
