THIS IS A 1978 PONTIAC THAT WAS SOLD TO A RECYCLING YARD FOR PARTS. I BOUGHT IT TO RESTORE .IT IS AN ALL MATCHING NUMBERS CARS . I'M SHOWING THE BEFORE FIRST . THE GUY THAT OWNED THIS CAR HAD NO CLUE ABOUE RESTORATION .

THIS IS AFTER ALMOST 12 MONTHS OF HARD WORK AND A TON OF MONEY .THE PAINT IS A BLACK FROM HOUSE OF COLORS WITH A METALIC FLAKE .THE PAINT JOB AND BODY WORK WAS DONE BY JIMS AUTO BODY IN BLACKSTONE ,MA .HE HAS TO BE ONE OF THE BEST WHEN IT COMES TO A NICE BODY .

THESE ARE PICTURES OF THE INSIDE BEFORE THE TAN SEE THE DIFFERENCE.

I DID NOT LIKE THE RED INSIDE THE CAR SO I HAD Pomposelli Auto Body Inc DYE THE DASH TAN. THEY DID A GREAT JOB. I'M FINISHING THE INTERIOR WITH PARTS FROM A DONOR 1976 PONTIAC VENTURE.

I STARTED WITH THE FRONT SEATS FOR A 2000 OLDS INTRIGUE .I HAD TO MODIFY THE MOUNTS FOR THEM TO BE STRAIGHT. THEY ARE LEATHER POWER AND HEATED(NOT THAT I WILL NEED THE HEAT). I HAD TO PULL THE OLD SEAT BELTS OUT BECAUSE THEY DID NOT MATCH .I HAD TO MODIFY THE SET FROM THE 76 PONTIAC TO FIT . THE BACK SEAT AND EVERYTHING ELSE IS STILL FROM THE OTHER DONOR CAR.
I STILL HAVE TONS OF WORK TO DO TO IT BUT ITS COMING ALONG SLOW BUT SURE . BUILDING A NICE CAR ON A BUDGET IS PROBERLY THE TOUGHEST THING OUT THERE TO DO.

I AM ALMOST DONE THE INSIDE SO I TOOK SOMEMORE PICTURES . I ALSO SHOT A FEW NEW ONES OF THE OUTSIDE .
 

 

 
I WILL POST MORE PICTURES AS THE INTERIOR PROJECT GOES ON .
