Here is my Chevy lumina thunder its #6 u just cant see it so well with the pic but you can see its a limited edition. I had to replace the original grill and my friend who owned the car before me had the tint done. She used to have Red neon underbody lights but do to a bad jump the lights got knocked out. there is still a lot of work to be done to this car before she is put in the ground so any advice any comments send em.
the chunk thats missing from my bumper there yeah that was awesome of me to smack into stuff being an idiot while driving lol...
rusty ass rotors I havent taken her out for a spin since tireman but these are soon to be gone...
more of that infamous rust thats is the cancer on my car she needs a paint job and some serious tlc anyone got cheap solutions?
Here she is my 90 Lumina Thunder! She aint the prettiest lil thing but shes mine!
5/4/09 Well I just got her back from tireman and they gave me bad news that my sub0frame bushings are toast so now I can add that to the to do list aswell but I got nothin but eagerness to get back under the hood or in this case under the car so any ideas any suggestions are most welcome, thanks.
5/13/09 I'm gettin bored with stock so I'll try n mess with it for now (till I can find a cheap 3.8 an swap out my engine) and I 'm gonna put a cold air intake on this weekend. last weekend I managed to get her runnin beter all it took was one bolt thats all an she sounded ten times better less stuttering and no more surging so woohoo! hope I can keep her on the right path gonna be adding more pics this weekend got lots to do oil change new tires and hopefully the cold air intake an lets not forget about the subframe bushings those will be fun!
5/26/09 sooo gettin the subframe bushings in toledo is about as fun as finding a needle in a haystack the size of toledo. I found some online thats gonna be my only option for that. still no luck findin a cold air intake but I'm not givin in yet I'm determined to make this car run good before I sell or call it quits! as far as mods go? well I would like to get some streetglow under body lights put back on I just like the way it looks and probably get a paint job done on it it needs it soooo bad I'm not even kidding..I'm thinkin pearl white and try to keep or find more lumina thunder stickers... other mods would include either an engine swap or just find a way to make this one stronger not too likely though its a stock 3.1 I mean I could have someone blue print the engine but I'm not sure how much that would cost you know?? also been thinkn bout shocks struts new calipers probable some new rims this car aint no racer I dont know if it can be a racer but hopefully with some luck and some more muscle added to it I can get it rollin a bit faster hey at least it would be fun! any other additions consist of myabe a sound system dont get me wrong I love my jams man but yeah I like the sound of my engine as it revs up and gets goin on the e-way. well its gettin late for me so once again anyone got ideas or helpful hints hit me up and thanks for lookin at my page.
6/21/09 so my bro and I got under the hood somemore found a couple of odd ends that are now tied up but the car still didnt work right she was drivin better yes but still not to the point that I can fell like she is ready to roll. the stuttering and the misfiring quieted down for awhile but they have returned so we dropd the tank and checked the evap canister lines that were literally rusted insided and out so we swaped out those for rubber hoses and then put it back together nowI'm thinkin hell yeah shes ready to go righht wrong she still has the same stuttering and misfiring problem and I dont know if its the coil packs or ignition module or if its somethin else entirely but what I do know is that I am still pushin to get her runing.
6/27/09 oks so I got my baby back she is running like a champ again all it took was ummm near 500 bucks and screwing in a bolt the right way and a swap out of the thermostat and some good clean gas and she is back on the road and damn near ready to roll all I gotta do is get the sub frame bushings from rockauto.com and putem in and baby is goin back on stamndby for her paint job body work and other things. till then however I am lookin to get the stock 3.1 engine to be a lil more kick ass.
