Looks good.
T-Top car, first mod MUST be subframe connectors!
Makes all the difference in the world!

Wasnāt that one on Craigslist for a while? Good stuff. Definitely go Subframe connectors, and I swear if you swap the older Z28 gfx for the 91-92 ones Iāll cut your throat. \<3
Great to see another turd-gen here!

Yea, and there will be another in a week or so. I am trading my wagon for an 89 GTA. 350TPI, T-Tops, vortec heads, unknown cam, vortec base, AS&M runners. Should be fun. Iāve nicknamed it ā80 gritā because it is pretty rough. Fun rolling through [thirdgen.org](http://thirdgen.org), and seeing all the old names still there.

That is the one off craigslist, Car runs and moves great. 25k on the rebuild motor and trans. Its a 5 speed car. The inside needs redone. Very little rust, a lot of it is just surface rust. I am going to help him with it. Its a great project car, I think at least. i am going to ask some questions from you f-body guys when he and i start on it.

If youāre going to do the body work, pull the GFX off and check for rust as they like to trap water in there and rot the body away.

Itās definitely an HUGE undertaking. Donāt let yourself get overwhelmed with it. Just remember that itās going to take a lot of time. Step back, and tackle it one thing at a time.
