    I like the wire wheels, or "swangers", as you call them. They look pretty good on there. The other ones don't do as much for me, but hey, whatever you like, that's the important thing!

    Feel free to ask whatever questions you have about getting the car fixed up; we're happy to help!

                        97 eh? That looks like an easy fix. Espeically with a few trips to the junkyard.

                            Give a man a fish and he will be fed for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will promptly forget that he once did not know, and proceed to call anyone who asks, a n00b and flame them on the boards for being stupid.

                              That's a great pair of cars for an 18 year old.

                              The "swangas" or whatever look good. If I were you, I'd sell the other rims if you still have them for an HO swap or something.


                              Like SVT98 said, a few junkyard trips SHOULD put that GM back in order. You might want to check for frame damage or a tweaked rad support just in case though.

                              waiting for install: 3.27's, Poly bushings, boxed rear arms, 2500 stall converter, ported e7's, etc
