Everyone has opinions so lets have em

[bret loibl]

allright out there tell me what you would think this car could be worth and what are the pros and cons on it. Go ahead and be honest i have seen how other sites can really drag one over the coals..some of the features are the alston front clip, air ride shock waves/fourlink, vintage air, wilwood disc all corners, tilt/gauges etc...The photos are not the best to show the paint and details but it should give you a idea....So fire away....(i hope this dosen't hurt to bad)...

[JoshStratton]

Man that is a very nice looking car, but on this site it would be hard to get a good opinion as far as PT cars are concerned since it has a chromed/polished engine that obviously doesnt get a lot of drive time. I really like how clean it is though, especially the interior. Very nice.

If you are looking to sell, however, you might find this post end up in the marketplace forum.

That's a very nice pro-street car.. I don't seeing any glaring problems or any mods that lack "taste".. no gody graphics.. clean thoughtout interior.

The only thing I found is that the engine doesn't match the car.. with the giant meats out back one would expect a "bad ass" engine than a small block chevy.. Maybe a big block or some sort of forced induction.

Since your car is tastefully done and not dated looking (like many PS cars) I would think it could draw in near the top of the scale. Also, orange paint is very popular these days so that would help as well.

Nice ride!

It is a very clean, nice car. If you're planning on selling it, why not swap those prostreet meats for some more modern ones? the wheels are the only thing that dates this paticular car. Swapping on some 20s or 22s on the back, with some large by wide tires ought to bring her up to date. Put some 18s on the front and you'll have a stunner there that will bring lots more $$ and younger, more eager to spend buyers.

here. let me illustrate. (badly)

Very nice looking car. Even though I'm not a huge pro-street fan, I do not see anything wrong with it. I agree with Tony. Put some 18's and 20's under that bad boy.

[bret loibl]

That is exactly my plan as soon as i recover some funds i was looking to buy maybe some 17x8 for the front and say 18x12 out back...I thought that it would be cool to have two tire/wheel combos big/skinnys for the prostreet look and the wider big diameter wheels for the protouring look..two differant looks just by swapping tires/wheels..

[Nine Ball]

I think the car looks great, except for the dated looking Centerline wheels on it. Put some nicer modern wheels on it and dress up the engine a little differently (maybe brushed stainless/aluminum instead of chrome) and it would be a winner. Agreed with Steve that a mild looking SBC just doesn't match the car with those huge meats under it.

[hdesign]

I'm going to echo what everyone else seems to think. The wheels are decent but could be much improved by a set of large diameter wheels. They have a kind of dated look, unlike the rest of the car. The interior is awesome, nice and clean. The exterior is also clean and straight but the orange (judging by the photos anyway) looks a little too orange creamcicle for my taste. Maybe I need to adjust my monitor.

[colt zantop]

bigger wheels......bigger wheels......20 rear and 19 or 18 front..... it will be sick!!!!!

[rocketman]

The only think I see wrong is that it's not mine,Damn that is sweet.

I wouldn't change anything except wheels and tires.I put the new M/T radials on my pro streeter and it handles great,Has the big wheel look,18/20's,on 33x22x20's and 24.5x18's.Have driven in a monsoon thunderstorm at 70 mph and no problems at all.

That's the only thing I would change.

[nvawgn]

yea i agree with eveybody else, 19's and 20's

[boodlefoof]

Good lookin' car. I really like the interior treatment. = )

[DeepBlue68]

I think it's funny how the wheels are the only thing separating a Pro-Touring from a Pro-Street car in this case. But it's true...with a nice set of updated wheels, I'd think that was a pure P-T car. Nice ride!

[shmoov69]

Nice car. Needs a Sonny's 800ci, Lenco, full cage, suspension to match, different tires and wheels and a little lower stance!:eek:

[JayR]

Yep, just switch out the rolling stock like Tony's Photo-chop and it will beright on the money. I'd go for a little less overall diameter in the rear tires to get it squatted down with a little meaner stance like a 19 or 20x12 with 335 or 345mm wide rubber or switch to 15x12 Weld wheels with a sticky M&H and a stack of sub 9 second timeslips and you'll be a hero again!

[Steve Chryssos]

I'll add to that: Once you have big inch rims, you can add bigger brakes. Also overdrive and a Procharger. Then you've got a mdern Pro Street car that will go anywhere, haul ass and hold its value.

[z4me69]

dosent need no sonnys big inch motor only thing it needs is a nelsons twin turbo sbc and you are set the twin turbo should be more reliable and probably make more power

[Bill Howell]

The car looks like a nicely done, street rod inspired pro-street car. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. As some have mentioned, an updated wheel/tire combo would really add to the looks but the main thing that car needs is an ass in the seat and miles on the odo..:3gears:

Nice car. Needs a Sonny's 800ci, Lenco, full cage, suspension to match, different tires and wheels and a little lower stance:eek: No way thats why i built this car!!! i had a 03 prostock s10 with a 510" motor, bruno/lenco trans. etc...I have had enough of trailers and dirty racetracks.. I have owend a couple of other prostreet cars that have gone in the eights but they were not very fun to drive...I guess iam getting old cause i like my tunes and the a/c>>>

If the car was already caged it would be cool.My pro streeter was built a race car and mildly converted back to street.And still has a 710 bbc,it had a lenco but I broke it,so I whiched to a 4l80e,and love it.I actually got 13mpg on a road this weekend,I was floored

I wouldn't go add the cage, the car has a really clean look,you see alot of pro street nova's.I think yours is cool.

[trapin]

Beautiful car, very nicely done. If you're selling it...it should fetch some serious coin.

[bret loibl]

Thanks everyone for comments on the car..(that didn't hurt too bad!!)..Iam very pleased with the remarks on the interior i sold the stock stuff and nearly paid for new interior with that money!!...Anyway thanks and keep posting Bret
