im going to keep the same paint scheme so the nose will still be white and the part that is currently blue will be burnt orange

by Limey SE Tue Aug 31, 2010 1:33 am

only my opinion but I would find a real close color to that blue, the blue with the white makes the truck really pop

by TWBouska AKA Wooderson Tue Aug 31, 2010 5:17 am

i agree with it, but i think a sunset orange would have much the same effect.

I'm jealous of you TW. Nice job!

Looks way cleaner without the log bumper up front. Do you plan on a roll pan out back or leave it as is?

i may go that route but i was also thnking about learning some metal work and getting another bumper..its kind of hard to explain and ive never really drawn a serious picture, but i always thought about not only tucking the back bumper, but buying some square exhaust tips and cutting 2 squares up into the bumper and welding the tips into it to really clean up the back. does everyone get what im trying to say? i dont know if im being confusing or not.

i also plan on getting the 17x9 z28 wheels from yearone (in chrome) and throwing them on there, and possibly dropping the car 2 inches.

i got that whole front end off the car, working 56 hours this week so im gonna be super busy but when i get some free time and daylight im gonna get out and take pics of everything, have all the front end parts for sale except for the center piece in the grill area that goes right in the middle of the car, kept that for the laguna nose (cut and reinforced it) to give it some extra strength up front.

let me know if you want anything still.

Yes that roll pan I referring to............... you can take a hole saw and cut the hole in it for the exhaust to come thru it instead of under

haha your car will blow the doors off mine any day...i need a high stall converter though..at least 1,800 rpm...but even then i still wouldnt have a chance.

by 74Malibu383 Thu Sep 02, 2010 11:20 am

2,500 stall converter might be more fun for you. Smile

by The Dude Thu Sep 02, 2010 11:23 am

On a daily driver in California traffic? Better have a good trans cooler..... Blow Up

1800-2200 would have been my guess. Still recommend the cooler though.
