Wow nice job man, and that blue really pops!

evandubya

Thanks, WildmaN. I got it fired up!!!!!!!!! Then it started puking coolant out of the heater control valve. So I bypassed it any one have one for sale?

Drove it around town for about 5 mins, still have to put in the side windows and a few more other things, but it's close.

borini63

I have one if you still looking,fairly new.

WildmaN

Sweet man, looks sick on there. So what kind of wheels are you putting on at the end? All aside, keep up the good work!

Dope! Love'n the roll pan!!! Good to see another one make the cut and get some love!!!

I found some aluminum six spokes at pick n pull with good tires.I hate six spoke, but it was cheaper than new tires, so hopefully when those wear out I can afford wheels and tires.
Anyone want an 06 Nissan Frontier, eats up way to much of my paycheck.

I'm slowly getting somewhere, got the timing set, still have to do the valves and exhaust. Did a lot of the interior.

I just want this thing done so I can drive it.

PurePontiacKid

jesus... this car is an example of how not to do a Z.

GhstStalker6

why say that? looks like a pretty thorough restoration. by the way, the blue, is beautiful. black interior.. excellent compliment. i can only imagine the final result being a thing of beauty.

PurePontiacKid

because

spoiler
shift ****
taillights
T-Top conversion (what a ****ing idiot)
rear bumper shaved
greasy looking interior pieces

need I go on?

evandubya

Thanks, GhstStalker! If pontiac doesn't like it is must look okay. I'm not happy having to paint interior parts, but, I'll replace them as I find good ones.

WildmaN

There seems to be quite a few people that hate on our F-40 spoilers. I don't understand why. I think the spoiler goes well with the the car, especially with a nice body kit. Of course, you can't go wrong with 8" wide wheels either.

k1drift

not a big fan of the wing, or the tail lights. but still its a nice build. i plan to take my bumpers off too sooner or later once i get some 15x9 front, 15x10 rear wheels and some boso pipes. well everyone has there own taste and mine happens to be a mix of this guys and purepontiackid's. to each his own. ya know?

evandubya

I agree, just because its not your taste doesn't make it bad. Thanks for the comment.

PurePontiacKid

No, this is just plain bad.

evandubya

Yep, cars are awful when they have straight body panels, don't drag the ground and don't have engine components made from particle board.

PurePontiacKid

and that's all you got on me.

cars are horrible when dumb rednecks such as yourself get a hold of them

garretthes

I think you have done an amazing job with what you had and not spending a boatload of cash. And you did it yourself.
There is nothing that can replace the feeling of driving a car that YOU built and restored.

restore: to bring back to a former, original, or normal condition, as a building, statue, or painting.

k1drift

no problem man. i have a roof rack so i cant cut a t top on mine but it would be nice to have on a drive around town. it makes me miss my mr2 t top... i should of never sold it..... well man keep up the good work. also how much do you charge to make one of thoughs intake manifolds? i want one to clean up the mess under the hood. a local guy wants like over 300... but lets face it im not made outta money lol let me know

evandubya

Thanks for the positive input! I put 10.8 miles on it today, its running pretty good. As far as the intake manifold, sorry I made it at work. They don't want you making money off of their equipment so until I get a TIG welder I can't sell any.
