| Billy made it seem really simple. Got the dimensions for the holes from the national forum. Drill-sticky tape-done  |

| Nice. He's pretty good at what he does. Now grab console/shifter and he can weld up the mounting brackets for you...winning... |

There should have been more SS colors available! |

| A couple 1/4 windows away from a white Impala. I like the idea of an opposite Impala. Dig.

| Doug brings an interesting point to the table. IIRC, Anthony had a set of '94 SS quarter windows f/s a little while back. |

|  My favorite color b-body.....this car is probably my favorite B on here! Only because I had one that looked identical to it 3 years ago. Love that sleek white paint..... And y'all know I loves me a car in black! |

| Hey Rob,
Spoiler looks great!! Looking forward to your review of the new gears this weekend. Haven't seen any pics posted of your new shifter knob.
I have some 95 quarter Windows if you're not too afraid of cutting and welding. Oh, wait, you were afraid to drill two holes...
See you next week. |

Ya, I have those now. They are painted the old olive drab color, but are in great shape.

| Your welcome Rob.  It was no biggie. Took 15 minutes or so to do. Real easy. Did take me away from my second bk bacon sundae though.

| I'll have to do the spoiler and quarter windows someday, if I keep this car. I'm with Rob, I just didn't/don't want to drill holes in the trunklid. I'm getting bored though, I have to either do something with this car or buy another one and do stuff to that.
Personally, when the SS was in production, I don't know why they didn't offer it in more colors- bright red, a navy blue, a white color, a metallic pewter color, hunter green, silver, the Cadillac Calypso Green color that sorta flip flops a little (more turquoise than DGGM) and that LDM color all would have looked great. |

| Calypso green wouldve been the balls!!!!! Personally I think they shouldve offered the impala package only in ORIGINAL SS colors. Like whatever was available in the 60's they should've used for the 3 years AND not offered it on the caprice or 9c1. Imagine a 96 SS in that seafoamy green/blue  |

| Another interesting point. I wonder if there was any reason for the 3 colors, Dggm being the best, for 94-96. My imagination runs wild, when I day dream about what GM would have come up with, if the 90's B body sales were more popular. Id like to think we wouldnt have this impala fwd noise...tho its an attractive looking car, it should have been rwd imo. |
