It's big, ugly, and slow, but it's mine :) It's paid for, and it has a 3800. All that matters to me.

This is after a wash and vac. Still needs to be really deep cleaned...

Not bad! Should clean up nice, especially with some new wheels. :wink:

New wheels are a must. Bent 5 spokes. Little body work and some detailing and she'll be jam up!

I know a guy who's got at least one set of bent 5's. ;)

It is really solid. Not bad for a total investment of $660 and a hand wash...

Nice car! It's not much uglier than some things out on the road these days! I whole heartedly approve of the bent 5's idea.

Nice! Sure makes me sad my brothers got wrecked. Its easier to work on in some ways since the hood opens the opposite way. We pulled his engine/trans out without removing the hood at all, should you ever need to do that.

Whats the future plans for it?

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I think the car looks great! You should get the bent five spokes too, as soon as your budget allows (I think we are all in that boat) - lol. - BC

Future plans... hmmm... once I get the body shined up a little, I'm thinking the rims, of course, blacking out all the chrome, or most of it anyway... painting the chrome bumpers, I would love to put a console in it, and one day, maybe one day, S2 L67, but that will be waaaaay down the road and pretty improbable lol. Mostly cosmetic stuff, though...

Your plans sound sick! I'm right there with you in the "hopefully one day I'll get an L67 in my car" boat. As for cosmetics though, you can make these things look classy, I can't wait to see you attack the chrome a bit.

I'm thinking something along the lines of the T-Types, but I may leave a little chrome here and there so the 5 spokes don't look out of place. Figure some black trim and tinted windows would look sharp on the white.

Tint FTW!!!
Edit: I'd like to get an L67 in my car someday too! Oh...wait... :twisted: Well, I could L67 something else...

I actually like that shape of LeSabre the best. Looks good!
