As most of you know I used to have a '93 Dodge Intrepid ES. Early this fall I traded it in on a '99 Pontiac Sunfire. My Intrepid had 135,000 miles on it and booked for only $2800. I got $3500 on the trade. The book on the Sunfire was $11,500 with only 28,000 miles on it. Talked them down to $10k-even so with the trade i made out well.
Here is a pic of the Intrepid in my moms driveway. Notice Her '93 Mark 8 in the background...
Humm... ever had second thoughts after trading in your car? It just dosnt look right on a dealers lot.
Here is my new car. Kinda plain but I will change that in time..
Back view.
Not a lot of trunk space to work with.
The fold down seat opening will need to be enlargened if I want to get 3 12s and a port in there....
Guess I'll start with some driving lights..
Now to dress up the wheels and tires a bit. Who ever got the idea of bolt on hubcaps should be taken out and shot! Yes the fact that you wont lose them is nice but it makes dressing up you car hella hard.
A little green paint to go behind the new caps for a different look..
Well painted white letters and $10 caps will have to do for now.
Not to bad for a start. I still need to replace all of the silver with gold......
Well the chrome caps are a bit too ricey for me so I painted the factory ones gloss black and put them back on.
I outlined some of the body lines on the car for a nice touch...
IMO it looks much better with the black caps.
6/01 Well I painted the chrome caps and put them back on to see how they would look, not to bad....
I wish we could have 8 letters/numbers on our plates here in PA...
I added Team Gates logos to the front head rests...
Just a few stickers..don't want to do too much advertizing of names on the car, that is like painting "steal me" on the side...
Heres a pic of the finished car..
Don't you just hate it when you just get things the way you want them with your system and you see something that would make it better.....I was driving by my uncle's bodyshop when I noticed this repoed '90 Grand Voyager in the back lot...needless to say it is now sitting in my driveway underconstruction...on July 21st '02 after I get home from the DB Drag I will begin the prossess of swapping the sound equipment from car to the van......thus begins the instal page for donaldm3.....
