Re: OMG someone please go buy this one
While it is not my cup of tea if you are going to do something at least do it well. As fuzzy as the pics are it does look like he had the interior professionally done and the paint looks fresh. Just about the only things you would need to do are change the rims and fix whatever he raised it with to fit the rims.

I will bet that his speedo/odo is not even close to being right.
I feel that someone should report him to CL for being obscene.

Re: OMG someone please go buy this one
In all honesty, the car is not as bad as it could be... Put some reasonable sized wheels on it, put it back to a stock stance, remove the decals... Honestly the interior looks ok, and it looks like it was nicely done, it is not way over the top, nothing that a little tweaking could not fix IE a Black dash pad...

I don't know why you guys are freaking out. It's not my style, I wouldn't drive it like that, but it looks like he took his time and did a professional job. If everyone made sure that everything they did to there car made e ery one else happy all of our cars would look the same.

Was it done professionally.......looks like it. Looks good in the owners eyes too.
"Tastefully Done" is key here.
Now.....if it were a Caprice Classic or a Bonneville or a Chevy Impala SS, sure.

Re: OMG someone please go buy this one
Like I said, take off the stickers, the interior looks really good, and get some 17's or 18's (with the right side tires) and it would look good... IMHO...

Re: OMG someone please go buy this one
That's crazy. I like thirdgen's both stock and modified - but this car has been taken to the extreme! If I had the cash to buy I'd restore it back to stock style appearance on the exterior and think about swapping in a 350 or LS motor. Those rims would be sold along with that interior. Nothing wrong with a modified car but, has to have good taste. I know taste is a subjective thing but, I feel sorry for this car.

Re: OMG someone please go buy this one
I have never understood the "abnormally large wheels" people put on their "whips" These 3rd gens already ride like a lumber wagon. Can you imagine how it rides now? IMO, I think the owner did a fine job to what he/she thinks is cool. The interior musta cost some dough. Paint looks good. I agree with above, This car needs to be rescued, 17" put on it to get it back down, decals removed and I think it would be a sharp looking 3rd gen. The problem with customizing any automobile is its done how you want it. So when selling time comes, stuff as read above comes out. Are those led behind the wheels or does it need a brake job too?? lol jk.

1. Did he put a sunroof in the vert top?
(EDIT: Or is that half a T-Top. L-Top?)
2. Is that a leaf blower in the back seat?
(Maybe he uses it as a blower, which is why HIS 305 is fast)
