Default Gonna need some ideas for this one

Motor will be replaced shortly.

I'd like to do a day 2 theme, but nothing too crazy. No tunnel ram, fender flares, side pipes or lace paint etc.

Cragars make everything better.

I think if you decide on the wheel and tire combo, and combined with the list above of things you don't want- things should fall into place.

What are the motor details?

Not a bad deal for a GT37! I would have paid that for the fenders and doors.

Debating on doing mismatch wheels on the Pontiac. Poverty caps/redlines up front and deep dish Cragars in the rear? Gotta figure wheel/tire size, spacing etc. Would also like a little higher stance than the last Day 2 car I owned.

I vote for the 70's standards: Higher stance, wide Cragars on the rear (N50's) and slightly wider than stock Cragars on the front, some panel paint done with either paint or a vinyl wrap for ease of removal if you'd like, a pedestal spoiler on the rear ala a Judge, loud exhaust, etc. I guarantee people will look at it and love it everywhere you go.
