How many miles? What year? Let's see the interior!

Your pics just reaffirm my theory that every N/A Regal on the road has good bumper fillers.

believe me i know my caprice was broken into and i only had it for a month. that was my first car so i definitely learned my lesson

In fact, I would install several kill switches. The little F&F wannabees would love to take it on a joy ride!

Did you live around here? Good call!

Personally, I would never want to joy ride in a 307(?) G-Body. I would probably have more fun in a 3rd gen F-Body.

Our former Chief was trying to land a job down there a couple years back. He said it was like moving from one chit hole to another. He showed me the crime analysis stats. Basically exactly what he was use to.

Didn't get the job tho. Think they hired from within to reflect the community....

Sup man and welcome!

newport news isnt that bad it just depends on what part of newport news your talking about because downtown newport news is pretty bad. i live in uptown newport news closer to williamsburg and yorktown.

any one know where i can get my car painted for a good price.

im trying to do somthing like this but replace the red with black

 

[slow305]

Maaco. Not that great of a paint job, but it is affordable. Ask Steve where he got his car painted.

If u prep ur car b4 u bring it to Macco and opt. for there best paint then its really not a horrible idea. In fact, I would bet even there middle of the road paint is still 10x's better then ur factory paint.
