Your current rims are nice, dump the cash into performance. A cat-back with 3.5" tips would make the ass look a lot better too...

LOL I just had a Mangaflow catted-X and Magnaflow catback installed (3" tailpipes). You didn't notice? But yes, will do on the performance mods! I have a lot to catch-up on. Right now, the only barrier is the wife--and trust me--that's a HUGE roadblock in my way right now.

Next, I plan to get new pullies, gears, and intake. Those I think I'll be able to sneak by her without being noticed. Once I get back from my vacation, I'm planning on setting up my gear appointment again.

LOUVERS

LOL!!! Sorry guys, I just love my louvers. This is one case where I have to call, "to each, their own." I fell in love with the '70 Boss 302 when I was a kid back in the late 70's / early 80's, and the louvers had a lot to do with that. (Mach 1's too... '68 Shelby GT500 KR )

But that's O.K., 2 / 3 ain't bad with this group of folks--eh? LOL

aw come on i like the louvers, u kinda gotta go with the whole retro theme to make them work though and mega is doing that, besides ill bet they'll make u look twice if u pass him on the highway . i actually didnt even know they made those things till i saw them on his car. keep on sportin' the louvers and being an individual

I'll bet they'll make u look twice if u pass him on the highway... Keep on sportin' the louvers and being an individual!

Yup, besides going for the old-school look, I've gained 1 rwhp due to the added weight keeping the tires on the ground for better traction. Can't beat the added benefit! My next mod will be a set of sponsor stickers--I can hardly wait!

O.K., 'nuff fun for me... Thanks again for the comments everyone--you guys have helped and inspired me a lot since I joined the forums in early Aug. It's really fun to have a network of people who share the same interest and help one another (patient too!).

EDIT:
OMG(osh), I just noticed I'm officially a "Stanger" now. (Look ma! I'm headed to the big leagues now!) LOL Actually, that's pretty sad considering how much time I've been spending up here--ugg...

Car looks real sweet....I like the louvers!

Rear Window Louvers = want 'em for my car soon as i get the $$$ to do so. Agree, they give the car a '69 Mach I /BOSS 302 look.

Looks great, Matt!

The black helps hold the color theme you have going on together.

 

[Mega-Man]

Thanks much! I didn't know at first, but now it's like it was part of the car all along. I'm happy.

Now, the question is--what's next? I was thinking about the back-side window scoops or louvers... Shaker hood? Paint the little lip in front of the hood scoop flat black? Paint the rear spoiler black? Ah! The choices! Ah! More money!

Looks good. I liked the trim panel, but I ended up taking mine off because of all the crap that would get caught between the panel and the paint.
