Cool, I'm glad you got it home under its own power. Btw, I love the basketweaves on the 83 it looks great. They need to start making those again. :hick:

Glad you got it home.What plans are in store for the V-6 beast?


well, i have to get it dd ready in the next 2 weeks, so just mechanical stuff for now......  i have a turbocoupe hood from 347Thunder that the wife won't let me put on hers, so i think i'll put that on.... i have newer taillights and mirrors from BEARMAX that'll come in handy now......  i have to remove the headliner, so i may practice my dent removal skills too:flame:

i don't think there are too many engine mods... maybe get rid of that noisy smog pump :)

btw, haven't tried yet, but it has those pimpin' cougar spoked hubcaps on it......  how the hell do i get them off without a key?

how do you convert an 84 to an 83????  start with this.............. (i was suprised that the emblem bolted on, i thought it was a sticky one....  the only problem was the holes weren't quite straight, so i just widened them:hick: )

Oh, and I think I had used a pair of vise grips on one of my locking covers. (Rust)
I got a tool, but don't know if they were all the same or not
