    Default Project Donk: My Caprice getting some upgrades.

    Sup guys,

    I got this Caprice Classic about 2 months ago. It belonged to my Aunt who died about a year ago. It was sitting for about 2-3 years. The car has 68,000 original miles. It was hardly driven. Driving to church, and the grocery store mainly consisted of this car's life. Interior is super clean as well. It has a 305 v8 5.0L That is Untouched!




    We did some basic maintenance, changed the fluids, Replaced the battery, Replace Rotor button, cap, Spark plugs, and Wires.

    The car was giving me some start up issues, and was flooding. Upon inspection the Carb. It seemed it was crapping out. We decided to put on an Edelbrock Performer on there. And put on an intake element.

    Here are a few pictures of todays Install.






    She is running a hell of a lot better. Car was so slugish before. She feels like a new ride!

    Stay tuned for more Donkness... haha

    Alright guys,

    First before everyone gets all judgmental putting wheels on the caprice. I did it because I don't care. And I think its hilarious. I am in no way targeted to one genre or another. I've had Procharged Z06's, Eagle talons, Toyota Sequioas, Lexus ES300s, to 450+hp Subaru STi's. I don't discriminate with my cars.

    So, I put a brand new set of 24inch wheels. I think they look pretty good relatively speaking.

    Yes,

    I do get funny looks. But i really don't care anymore.

    Its getting painted at Sprayglo next week. Most likely some shade of baby blue. I need some bumper fillers, and rear trunk first. The trunk lock has been busted out before. Its already been stolen once. hahaha

    That first picture surprised me because it's been forever since I've seen one of those in stock form. You better get some Flowmasters to make it really official.
