Default update pics!

for those of you who dont know, i bought a 98 camaro 3.8l and needless to say, it had a lot of problems so my grandfather and i decided to fix it up.

so far ive redone the entire interior, new ball joints,struts,rearend, power steering and assembly and alot more i dont feel like typing. anyways heres the most recent pics of my interior and taillights as well, tell me what you guys think:

old taillights:

new:







the old interior had orange seats, no window cranks, the crossovers were bolted on the outside of the door panel and the upper dashboard and ac vents were painted orange...which i thought was ugly as hell.

bought all the parts from the salvage yard

Looks good, not a huge fan of those tail lights, but it's your car so as long as you're happy thats what counts.

What rear end work did you do?

I love how 1 pic has the license plate is blacked out, and in the next it's clear as day.

Good to see you fixing up the car. Stock taillights look much better.
