ok well im from a small town in the upper peninsula of Michigan.. and i have wanted a 6GC since i had a license but i could never get one cuz.. A.) i didnt have a job and B.) i live in the U.P and the snow up here is CRAZY... so this summer i decided i was going to go get one no matter what.. so i found one on the internet.. it was in minnesota.. about 6 hours away from where i live.. so i got all the paperwork from the bank and got my loan approved. i called the guy and said i was coming the next day and he said alright ill have the car ready, it needed to be inspected by the DMV because it was a salvaged car.. so anyway i drive all the way to minnesota on friday only to get there and have them say can you come back on monday and i said no way in hell am i coming all the way back here.. so they said they were going to have it trailered to MI.. so i said alright thats fair...so im waiting and waiting and i call them and they were like well i have someone here who is willing to buy it and im just like thats bull..so i told them i will be there tomorrow to come get it.. so in the end i get the car and i bring it home... i start rippin it apart the day i get it... the guy that had it before me bought a crusty ebay kit.. which we all know is pretty much a mold of a mold of a mold.. lol.. so that doesnt line up at all and the wiring in the car is all shot... well here are a couple pics i will keep everyone updated as i progress with this project... thanks for reading here are a couple pics.. keep in mind i didnt put this kit on and im going to get a new one eventually..
 after i put on the rims  after i vinyl dyed the door panels....works pretty good  just a little bump in the trunk... 300/4 jl audio and two 12" Jl WOs wiht a alpine phantom face deck.. im glad to finally be part of this community i've wanted a 6gc forever and now i have my dream car.. thanks for checkin it out guys.. ....UPDATEd....  -I did my headliner with black vinyl turned out pretty good..  -close up of the vinyl.. tell me what you think..  -Pic of my center trim...painted silver,, with my alpine phantom face deck.. it's old but i love it This post has been edited by TaKtikal_6G: Aug 10, 2006 - 9:34 PM -------------------- |

Seeing your 12's in the trunk makes me anxious to get mine

I'm glad you're finally able to get a celi; it looks like a very promising car! Silver is the best color as well
Keep me posted on what you do to it so I can stay jealous of you
