If you build your cars like you type your posts, it's "gone" turn out half-ass.

You weren't kidding when you said it wasn't much yet. But put some time and money into it and I'm sure it'll be a lot of fun to drive.

Sorry to say but I disagree with that idea!! If he puts the same amount of money into this project as he did the Monte Carlo this should turn out quite well!

OP, what part of the West End you stay??

his other MC isnt IA's type of car but its clean complete car.. unlike a good percentage of imports on IA.. I see alot of Monte Carlo SS around, but not too many are in that good of condition.. from the looks of it..

so what have you done to it so far?

nothing just yet i have just been ordering parts, im starting with the motor first and i got a pig nose for the time being untill i can get the s15 front i think im going to spray a simple coat of black paint on it for now so it doesnt look to shity while im working on it too.

DO NOT do the S15 front end... For the love of all that's holy.

Either (coming from a 240 guy), put a S13 Silvia front end or leave the pop-ups... (pop-ups done right are rarer IMO). I run 16's. 17's is as big as I would ever go. 19's are for a trailer queen.

i concur. S15 fronts just dont look right on S13s. period. if it was a coupe, id say go with a kouki front. but i agree with echo on this. most kids that have pop ups have theirs primered or beat to shit. if you keep the pop ups, do it right, or you get the fork stab lol

id say do 18s thatss what I notice most 240 guys do that size. and like cameron said. 19 inch tires are so much more. than 18 and 20. I got some nicde wide 20s for sale.

Hey bro keep possitive dont second guess your self do what ever you want to your ride not what every one else wants and im sure you will be more than happy with it and im sure people will be objective when they voice their opinion rather than some of the haterish coments you get on here, i mean im sure you intend well on fixxing the car reguardless of what it looks like now i mean what do they expect for you to strip down the car destroy it and then rebuild it ... ITS A PROJECT CAR PEOPLE.. not every ones mommy and daddy can buy them a nice shiny honda and some of us might enjoy working with our hands rather than just buying something some one else put the wrench time into and then driving it around town claiming they did it..... just a short note on my lexus even though i know not every one might love it but i did all this in two months time had to pull the frame straight replace the headlight support bracket the bumper re enforcement find alot of the parts on it find the rims so its pulling together slowly but im sure sometime before spring or ill damn sure try but see thats the thing weather i get there or not no matter what ya say if ya think my ride is a bucket it will still be my bucket that i fixxed that im proud to drive... im glad to see the do it your self spirit isnt completely dead good luck dude
