1981 Chevy Caprice Classic:

First off Praise God who has giving us all a blessing to rep our rides like this.

Secondly thanks to all the cardomian members for your comments ideas and insperation.

  Thirdly all that helped me get this far.. Chad Bates  (cverbs) , mama, unc (mechanic) , thomas (paint) Mark (mechanic)ebay wheels and tires. And all that said I was nuts love ya and it aint over

This vehicle was pirchased in January 2000. I have started working on a partial restore since 2005. Slow and steady baby.  I am building this ride with keeping it ORIGIANL as possible as the the theme. This partial restore will include all work to restore the int and ext. The int is done in the org. color and pattern scheme. The paint is two tone replica. This car did not come with the two tone. Again we kept the paint in the same line as orginal productions.  Look on the brochures painted just like the factory. I am also going witha classic wheels look. The suspnesion is stock except for the additon or rear air bags. Ihave decided to go with Vouges and trus. I am still seaching for the swangas but until then I will roll 30's real nice. I have included before and also the protoype pix. AWe wil have the final insatllment this srping.

 It had some after market rag and side makers. Not    orgianl out of here. I took the rag off, Winter 07. Also just had the int 90% complete

 Another shot after the rag gone. U can see dents and rust. But she sits so nice. The paint dead but I saw somemthing. Int is real clean pix comming

   Shot of the rear. NIce chrome all og need polished. Ugly symbol will replace. Look at the pencil commingout the rear. Working on exhuast. Nice sopund and ride.       

                                   Just some shots at the paint shop. 2007

Some of the work done
The body was always good on the girl. Had some dents and hail damage. Thats Texas. No rust except under that  dam ragg. The ride was painted in May 2007. Rained on my shit 3 monhts straight. Did not have cover, paint did set on or dry. But you can see what i was trying to do. I did not have all my body pieces trim etc. Once painted I had too back up cause the paint showed all the work ineeded. Therfore this site is the prototype until spring 09 baby. I have finally got all the pieces to complete the ext. Hood weatherstripping, emblems, grill, light houses, lights... Shit yall got me going into detail. Killin my pockets

2 Days out the shop before the rain set in.  Looks real good. Alot of clear coats and paint. Thomas got off. Then the dope boys competeing wit me. Copy my style and color, Tried to get my paint man to spray em the same way. He too real caues he  knew i got the hottest paint in Tx well almost hahaha

U can see my hood not correct, bumper fillers wrong model. grill looks a mess  

I am likikng the og look. This without the wheels on jsut dummies. Shit look good. This is how it will look on show days jsut whites and og hubcaps that the concept. Even the mirros 2 toned detail baby. Oh yea I did take off the one chrome mirror and put on 2 areo mirrors.
  

Out the shop and showing and glowing. This is all in 2007. My baby done went thru hell for 2 years. Now she ready to do whatit do. This is the prototype. I am now looking into new ideas but I got to keep my concept on this. Shit why fixx up a ride and it looks like yours..
