    Default My coupe served many lives

    Here is a few shots of my 84 coupe after I had painted it last spring. (sorry for the low quality cell phone pics).

    I had bought this car in 2002 as my daily driver for $150 plus an 89 sentra. It was a two toned blue 2.3 auto car with a wiped out cam.

    The car served well as a driver until winter hit. Every cold morning I had to hit the carb with starter fluid. After cleaning up the carb & having no change I put my engine and trans in from my 83 gt (early year SROD).

    After serving well as winter driver I decided to put in an turbo coupe 8.8 w/ 3.55's, t-5 trans, intake, carb, headers and exhaust. It ran ok at the track with slicks (13.99).

    Later in 03 I had the urge to turbo the car (my buddy is a tubo buick freak) so I tore the car apart, new rings and bearings, plumbed the turbo from a school bus and ran the exhaust. Everthing looked great and then lost interest.

    The car sat until 09 when I took out the turbo stuff and put in a new AOD n/a combo for track use. Car was painted windveil blue last year (driver quality). I have been sloooowly putting it together since then.
