Previous car was chitbox 93 9C1 that blew a head gasket. Found this 96 B4U for a few hundred dollars more than what it was going to cost to fix the 9C1, and had full leather/power. It was originally Marblehead Metallic with grey interior.
The guy I bought it from had already deleted the antenna, trunk key, wheel moldings, and hood ornament. I picked up new-in-box fiberglass smoothie bumpers cheap off craigslist, and used a homie hookup over at a paint shop to get bumpers on and car sprayed. Before paint:
The rear wheels are also a craigslist score - N97's stretched to 10" that were used with slicks at the track, but the guy wrecked his Impala and sold the wheels to me. I had the whole set painted and put BFG 245/60's up front and 295/50's out back. I get the most compliments and questions about the wheels
I've been repairing/replacing/modifying/customizing as needed, becomes available, or can afford it. I scored another craigslist find on a lot including the headers, Holley TB, tuned PCM, F-body MAF & aluminum radiator for $500. Changed up my engine bay quite a bit with that one buy
The interior is showing it's age, but will get a complete makeover in 2015. I'll be going all out on that. Most recently I participated in the Phoenix Spree "Cannonball Run" and was up against some pretty stiff competition - Lotus Elise, Hemi SRT8 Charger(that was a beast), '12 SS Camaro, Porsche 935, C6 Vette, 280Z that was fast as **** to name a few
I didn't win the race, but did get Host's "Choice" award. Here she is on race day
And another downtown by the Diamondbacks stadium
My submission pick was from a massive cruise "freeway takeover" hosted by one of the local car promoters. This is me waiting to start that run
Here is me with my Uncle-in-Law and his numbers-matching '66 Charger at a charity car show just after my 3rd place win @INC Madness 2(trophy in engine bay)
I do enjoy driving my Cappy, and is usually my daily driver. She is showing some signs of road use, but was never intended to be a trailer queen. This one gets driven!!!
After a long time planning, and having a vision in my head, the interior is in. There a few minor things to work out, but I'm happy with how it came out so far:
Jet is having another sale on the Dynamic Spectrum Tuner by entering the code “JET35” in the ‘checkout coupon’ for a total price of $345 + tax.
Shipping is free.
For those of us who don’t own a TunerCAT license, this is a decent alternative option.
Gotta 95 Impala SS, no headlights (turn signals work), no tail lights (brake lights work), no dash lights.. changed out headlight switch under dash multiple times, checked fuses, checked ground connections still nothing. Anyone had this problem??? ? All bulbs replaced
Its was an epic battle... 7 cars lined up against the police... They fought the law but the law won! (I think I've worn that joke out...But we won't talk about that.)
Congrats! That's a beauty!
Somebody call Lornejay1 to pick up the dead bodies left in his wake... Ok, I'll stop now.
