HEY WHATS UP PEOPLE IM 15 JUST GOT MY FIRST CAR, IT IS BUHRGENDY RED A 1991 TWIN CAM ENGINE AND IV CLEANED IT UP ALOT BUT THE PAINT IS SOOOOO BAD MY BEST FRIEND IS A MEMBER HERE HE SHOWED ME THE SITE. IF ANYONE CAN HELP ME GET ANY PARTS, OR GIVE ME ADVICE ON IT I AM X-TREMELY SERIOUS ABOUT MODDING MY CAR AND RACING ETC... THANX.

 

welcome to the site. it would do u well to drop the all caps thing. if u didn't know, it's like screaming to the top of ur lungs w/every single sentence. u can see how that would get really annoying, really quick.

as i was just telling another new member, we're all more than happy to embrace a newb and help. all we ask is that u search prior to asking a question, and when asking a question, be as specific as possible. while there are some smart guys/girls here and ace mechanics, we all 100% SUCK at mind reading. so let's try this a different way:

1. tell us what u want to do (i.e. improve the car's looks, appearance, comfort level, ICE, etc)
2. tell us ur budget
3. tell us how much downtime u can afford (if applicable)
4. be very specific
5. did i mention searching?

anyhow, u can take this any way u like to (or not, if u wish), but it's intended to help. i only hope it does.

 

Hey he is my friend just to let you guys know.

I edited your post so the pic worked

 

I thought i jus fixed it?

 

adding what your plans are will help. Painting the car isn't cheap if you wanna do it right. How about prepping and black primer? heh

He`s my best friend. He doesnt really listen to me when it comes to how much paint cost. Alot of my friends think u can jus take it down to macco and get a perfect paint job for 200 bucks lol.

Anyways he is going for alot of show im not sure about performance but he wants blue and black interior,intake,exhaust so far. He doesnt have anybig time plans. Im not sure what he is thinking as far as suspension.

If you wanna go show...you need a real good paint job that will catch the judge's eye, I would think minimum cost for a real nice paint job about 1500. Can run all the way to 4k

 

hmm, he hasn't responded yet. i read my post over again to make sure i didn't come off as some kinda message board **** or something.

ryan => are u sure he doesn't have any bigtime performance plans or anything?:
i dunno, anyway, if he hasn't read this or anything, can ya tell him he's welcome to post here? i don't want him to get the wrong impression...

 

What I meant to say is that he is undecided on all the stuff I said like suspension,engine,etc.
Ryan

 

Hes just lazy thats why he hasnt reply`d.
