Appreciate it. Everything will work out just take your time & research the parts you need. This will give you a idea of how much $$ you want to put in your project
Best of luck finding a reputable body shop. I experienced my car being held hostage only to have it get a hack paint job. My car needed NOTHING but a couple dings fixed and paint. You may consider wrapping it, if you can’t find what you’re looking for. Look up Baggs on the Go videos. Or strap a few more thousand to the price that’s already in your head for a more quality shop. Trust me there’s a ton of horror stories behind paint shops. Best wishes on your build and progress.
Thanks Man. That's all I been hearing about body shops & to be honest with you that's the only thing I'm worried about while doing this build. You gave me a good idea with a wrap. I never thought about going in that direction. Like you said ima have to dig a little deeper in my wallet & find a quality shop
Just got a 84 GP I ordered a 5.7 with a 80E. At least yours came with a 305 lol the one I found had a 231 3.8 lmao 0-60 in ten minutes My guy on north ave by Austin got a body shop if u still lookin
They put mine in when I got the swap done. You could call them to see where u could get one. Street Car Headquarters 219-794-5279.

Question for you, did you have to do anything with the steering shaft? I mean did you keep your stock one? With shorty headers. Cause that's what I got, but my header driver side ont go in because the steering shaft. Thank you for your time and answers.
No the headers came from Holley (Holley Hooker Headers) they fit perfect with the stock steering shaft. I will be changing out the gearbox soon. The steering is to flimsy for the HP I got
317 heads are the worst on a 5.3 and even the 6.0 they came on. 706 or 862’s off early 4.8/5.3 is higher compression and better. Should have got a factory intake instead of that fast and saved a bunch.
Very very nice ...for a roller that is lovely !!!
And all that work will feel better than a Challenger !!!
Appreciate it. I believe it will once the suspension, rear-end & brakes get together
Really nice SS 👌 looking good already it's a process but at the end it will look 💯 G- bodies for life. Good luck bro
Thanks Bro
I got the same set up. 5.3/ 4L80e with a 2800 stall converter. 342 gears ⚙️ for nice highway driving.

LMAO I had the same engine in a 86 Cutlass took me 20 min to drive down the block. Whats the Name of the shop?
Viking coilovers for suspension 👌🏾👌🏾
Vikings over QA1 ?
All my opinion, but the double adjustable Viking coil overs… plus it gives u more options to look for
That's slick!
Thanks I Appreciate it
