what I have done over the last month of weekends..
dropped crossmember to replace rack and pinion, new power steering lines, control arms, sway bar bushings and links, front struts,caliper brackets bolts, and hubs all around.
and... cant say it was fun at all...
not much to pull from aleros here in denver at the salvage yard.
still need outer passenger tail light and front fender liners for both sides
only took 14 hours of work for all of that .. with 1ft of clearance under the car...

its not a fully sc/t'd grand am.. its just the GT that came with the SC/T wing and hood. heres a pic Attachment 11514
I do plan on getting the SC/T body kit eventually. and supercharging it as well. but thats just plans. nothing more. near future upgrades will include res delete, high flow cat and a 80 series flowmaster.

Nice! Get some mirrors for it too. Did it come with the hood and spoiler from the factory? If so, that would be a GT1. |

the hood and spoiler are factory on mine. as well as the 5 spoke torqued chrome rims, the full leather interior (shift knob is wrapped in leather, steering wheel, seats and everything.) My tail lights do not look like GT tail lights though. they look like SE tails.

The SE tails have horizontal lines running across them, the GT's don't.

Probably going to drive to autozone in it today to get 50$ back for a spring compressor I rented.
Haven't driven the car for about a week now.. Roads are pretty clear and I'm having withdrawals so I might drive it to autozone, or just use my moms car... Hmmm...
I guess I'll drive it, I need more pics to show its lowered.
Oh I lowered it about a week ago. Which most of you know.
Boom.
