Hey all! I am alive! Sore but alive! Thanks for the well wishes :-) My hubby cobbled that hood as only he can :-) It was a combination of me not wanting to lose the line down the front of the hood and he really liked the L88 look so he cut the part in the front and raised it up so it all...

Well my hard working husband tried but the car is just not cooperating! The non leak valve cover gaskets leaked, the battery I bought at napa is a p.o.s.. Long story short, the car was not going any where yesterday. Today we are going to get rain so basically no ride before the surgery for me...

Here are some photos of the underside of the hood makeover. I bought one on of those L-88 hood scoops and I have been determined to keep the CFI setup. I figure thats what made my car unique. The whole interior has been done, new 383 stroker motor, new tranny, new rear end, new just about...

Hello All. Its been a long time since I have been around and things have been crazy with life. I hope you are all well :-) The body work is coming along. My poor husband. He has worked not only so hard at work but tireless hours on my car. I am having surgery on June 1 and I said I wanted to...

More things uncovered but all in all it could be worse. Thanks for the encouragement :-) Hubby gave my daily ride a quick makeover (the man never sleeps!) , new shocks and struts, new rims and new tires and he did the front and rear brakes too. I bet you didn't know that the Neon came in a...

Hey Neighbor, I live next door to you! I am in Merrimac MA! Nice to have another vette owner in these parts :-)

Yep that is the one. I tried so many things to clean the years of grime on the leather doors and that worked great.

Hopefully he had good insurance on it. Poor guy, poor car.

Lots of photos, on many different computers, some day I will put them all together on a webiste in a nice album.

I found the magic eraser an invaluable tool for cleaning my interior leather doors. Try an inconspicious area first just to be safe.

I really want to keep it two tone and still have it be a silver with a different shade of a maroon. The claret that is on there is really dark and I want something brighter. I also want to incorporate the 3 pinstripes colors we found on the inside of the door jam. I would prefer to have the...

once my husband brought home his paint scrapers from work it went much faster than the razor blades we were using. I say we and really its 90% him! I know he was hoping the car wouldn't have repairs and bondo but lo and behold it did. My husband has worked on cars for over 30 years and he...

I am good thank you! I am anxious to drive the car, even if she is not painted or if she is just primed. It seems like spring is teasing us this year.

Hey Mac, How are you doing? Its the one on the C3 in the background.

My hood is on the ground right now on its side so I can clean it so I can't exactly lay this thing on top of it to see if I like it. I did see the Frankensport hood (I love that car btw) and it seems that I will lose the long lean lines that attracted me to the 82 to begin with (well that and...

Nice job!

well it did say used primarily for photo shoots! While most of you barely noticed that there was a car for sale :L the first thing I noticed was her heel on the paint!!

I hope this isn't a trend, now I am afraid to look under mine. My daily ride has been leaking tranny fluid (the only benefit of snow in my driveway) and I was bumming that it was going to need a tranny, but it was an $85. repair for some hoses and clamps. Course it needs rear struts done...

Good luck with your project and welcome to CAC :w

I'm just happy when my wheels look all purdy ;-) that is as I smoke the tires going down the street :L (in my dreams)
