    Default Thinking about makeing some changes to my old school

    Brief history on the car. well its my first car I have completly restored it over the years I have had it 10 plus years I raced in in the first few years blowing up a few junk yard 302's along the way lol but I went threw the car again in 2005 and redid every thing repainted all new chrome/wheels interior. And the cars has been the same since 2006 and Im kinda wanting a more muscle look for it Im thinking about repainting the car black to achieve the more "muscle" look also note the vinal top is black and will be staying. here is how it looks now.






    here is a idea of what Im look at

    This thing is awesome. I like the white, but black will definitely look good too.
    I know you said you went through a few 302's, so what's in it now? another 302?

    I think it should be the original color. If you want it to be more muscle car-ish, put together a big block

    Man dump it, put some Arrow wheels with a huge lip and massive offset and a front air damn. Think vintage Trans Am days and that car will have all the Muscle you want. IMHO...

    I am not going to do anything to tare this car up! So no big block as these have weak shock towers and I like the old trans am series mustangs but I would never consider makeing my car a clone of one and this car will never be "dumped" the rear air shock were on of the best investments I hated how it looked low in the rear! This is a street car I no longer race it I only cruse it i dont want to do anything to make it less reliable or worse to drive. The only engine/mechanical plans are a auto to 5 speed swap and rear gears. but Im just thinking about a color change thats all no wild changes!
