Re: I'm in trouble again... 1987 Sport Coupe
Opinions on taillights???
My original sport coupe tails have a crack on one side. I have two sets of grids to install. Should I put on the stock plain, grids... Or use my red turnsignal & tinted grid taillights. I think I'm leaning towards the red taillight mod/tinted set.

Re: I'm in trouble again... 1987 Sport Coupe
I got the wheels finished with the exception of the new center cap stickers. I cannot wait to get these things put on the car, and an engine installed, the suspension stuff on. Anyways here is some pics of the wheels/tires
Clear coating the inner barrels
Wish I could make this work, looks mean!

Re: I'm in trouble again... 1987 Sport Coupe
I got the TPI motor out and on the stand Late last week.
I stayed late Friday night and installed new gaskets and seals across the engine, and did a little clean up work. I re-polished the fuel rails, and painted the lower intake. Cleaned plenum and runners up while they were off.
I got an early start Sunday and started with re-polishing the valve covers, the finishing up gaskets and install of the motor.
That sure helped the ride height. Still a monster truck, but I got the fix for that later.
Good little Sunday, and was washed up by noon and heading to dinner with the family

Re: I'm in trouble again... 1987 Sport Coupe
I feel bad for the poor car, as it really has just been sitting around while I try to get all the other busy stuff in my life handled.
With my Detroit Speed suspension change over on the 1991, I now have a full suspension set up for this lil car that should really make it a screamer in the corners. I have LS1 brakes waiting, and I'm still working on what wheels to run, but I think I got something planned with wheels that should be cool, if I can do it the way I plan too... Its not going anywhere.
