Project' Rabid Goat

Found the Color!!!!

PPG Oh So Orange. It should be in color next week.

Repainted the front grille pieces today to get rid of the chrome, and I installed the Howe Ball Joints into the SPC upper control arms.

Brad at Bonspeed autographed my wheels.

Don't let the brake pad dust mess up that signature!

Just read the whole thread Russell. Great job! Brings back memories of mine.
I know this is a mute point but the HOK Tangelo could have been painted over the grey primer. The white sealer he's talking about does give it that lil' extra pop! The color you chose is going to look awesome anyway.
I'll be checking back in.

Well, UPS made me 50% happy.

They delivered 1 side of the Goats new shoes...

Took the two wheels in this morning and had the Rivals mounted. Nice looking tire!!! I now have 11.5" of rear end stickum.

What size did you go with for the wheels tires? I am going with the SAME setup.

[69*Goat]

18 x 8 for the fronts, 18 x 10 for the rears. Rival 245/40-18 fronts 295/35-18 rears. I don't remember the offsets, I will have to check my Bonspeed order.

Nice. When do you think the car will be finished?

My goal is to have it ready for the October coffee and cars.

Coffee and cars off of Louetta/249? I'm hoping to have my Firebird there as well. Just took it on a shake down run after the LS swap. Saw your post regarding Goodguys in Oct. Are you heading up there after coffee and cars then?

I don't know about the Goodguys trip yet. I don't want a 4 hr trip to be the "Shakedown" trip. If I don't get mine back before Mid-September, it is going to be very tough to get it finished for either show.

She gets a little color today!!!

The Jams, Underside of Decklid, Inner fenders, door edges.

[rickpaw]

Getting closer. Only 5 weeks to cars & coffee.

Color!!!!

[Nicks67GTO]

SWEET!!! That's a nice shade of orange! I had a Nova that was pretty close to that shade and I loved it. That will look killer with your black wheels too!
