442 Clone
Hi, my name is Jason I have a 1984 Cutlass that I bought about 5 years ago as a wreck. I have done a lot of work to it to make it handle well and still maintain the ride as well as tear up the rear tires.
I loved the way the 442's look so I painted it similar to one.
Here are some of the features and a pict;
- 1987 Buick Grand National engine, Edelbrock cam, 38lb injectors, 3" exhaust, etc
- PTS built 200r4 Trans. and converter
- GN 8.5 rear with 3.42 gears and BMR lower control arms
- IROC steering box and radiator
- 12" front brakes with Hotchkiss control arms
- Eibach springs
- Leather buckets from a Cutlass Ciera International (rest of interior coming soon)
- Grilles are 1981, headlights are 1987 in a modified 82 Header panel.
- Front Spoier is Hurst Olds from Lauren and rear is oem modified 87 Monte Carlo
- Paint is Daimler/Chrysler Sienna Pearl and GM silver MEtallic pearl, decals from Phoenix Graphix.
- Wheels are 17" American Racing Salt Flat specials.
- Tires are 215/45 and 315/35
Hope to learn a lot while I am here and looking forward to any events you might participate in.
