32539After 2 long years I started at a shell almost. I put in a vortec 350 and 700r4 tranny. Its being painted as I speak. It will be black with silver stripes. I have also been toying with the ideas of painting the bumpers black also. What do yall think? I saw the nova Troy did and fell in love with the painted bumpers.Here are a few pics of the car this morning and the bumper idea I have, I have a spare bumper and i was really bored so I played with the paint gun!:idea:





Not too bad for a girl!
