Can you tell me the wheel and tire sizes? LOVE the stance.

What springs front and rear? I see it has air shocks.

Thanks, loved reading every page!

Last few days of work in the shop ❤️ Now have the seats recovered and the springs on the buckets repaired. Quite the experience doing the interior on this Pontiac 💙💙

Johnny,
I know I sound like a broken record...but...."I am so stoked about this car. I have never been this excited about a vehicle since I got my license back in 1971 and had my first car...1955 Chevy."....STOKED!!!

Thanks Todd,
I started yesterday on the new Pearl Interior. I have the back seat done and am in the process of removing the covers on the buckets....
I am hopeful that the Pearl will enhance the 1989 Camaro Bright Blu paint on "Blu BiYu"
I have included 2 photos of the finished seat and 2 of my progress on the buckets!

Thanks Z4,
I appreciate your visits and your comments!

Spent a little time at Basic Body and Paint this morning checking on "Blu BiYu" and her progress. This is how I found her...Block Sanding done and ready for masking. Then Clark Gick begins his magic. Let's see...8 coats of primer, 4 trips block sanding, filling, sanding, finish sanding, etc....
I have been asked by several, "Aren't you done painting YET!?!?"...My response, "Not yet....You DARE NOT rush perfection! If you do, what you WILL receive is WAY LESS than perfection!". Knowing Clark Gick as I do, He will settle for nothing less than his best..And his best is PERFECT for myself & �� "Blu BiYu" ��
Thanks buddy! Keep up the great work!!

I'm excited for you too Kurt! You were making such great progress in record time, what happened, I though it was going to be done in the spring with the way you were going at it?

Default Lovin' the Blu!

Lovin' the Blu...
After spending the day with Jackson Edward running errands, we made our way to Basic Body and Paint. One can only imagine the look on my face when I turned on the lights in the booth and opened the door. 💙WOW💙
Clark Gick, you outdid yourself on "Blu BiYu". She looks awesome in her new coat of 1989 Camaro Brite Blue. She should be some different in the sunlight with that Pearl that you added...💙💙
I have no doubt she will be turning heads with her new Pearl Interior, AR Torque Thrust D wheels, Red Calipers peeking through the spokes...and yes, her brand new chrome that will dress her for the "Ball" along with her new 2 1/2" Pypes Exhaust that makes her sound like the GTO she isn't 😎....Thanks again Clark, for a job well done....Until you are better paid my friend! ❤️🙏❤️

That’s looking great. I had an 89 RS in bright blue. Can’t wait to see yours sprayed.
