well with all the "from the begining" posts I felt inspired and dug up a few pics of all of the j's I have owned over the years. (minus the baby blue 91 i had for a winter)
it all started with my first j, the "flamed86" I still wish i would have kept this car to this day.. and yes the paintjob could have been better, but i was 17 and it was the first thing i ever painted..
then came the 96z and my org name changed to "zdeuce4" cant find any pics from when it was stock, but here is right before i killed her
sorry for the dark pic...
and why i never got to finish.
then i got th 03 and bcame "sol azul" for like a min and became just "Andy Brooks cause people were starting to get confused" after some time the name exesive stuck and i became "exesive fire" (spelled wrong on purpose to match my vanity plate)
here are pics of the progression of the 03..
first day home
After wheels, drop, exhaust, and sterio upgrades ( I sometimes wish it was still like this, forshadowing maybe???)
then i lost my mind for a min... vynal?? oops
then came the kit, rk shipped the wrong one right before the st louis bash, i only had tome to get it in primer before we left, and the day after we got back it got vandalised... (thats when the madness begun and it was all down hill)
tore her apart to start fixing the vand.
somewhere after a bunch of welding, glassing, filler, and primer she came out bagged, shaved, frenched, spoiler, hood and 19's
then the flat black, and flames (this will prob be my favorite look, but unfortunatly it was also the most impractical and it to shall change...)
somewhere along the line i bought the 02 gt for a daily driver.. ( i put the wheels on the first day home lol )
then catfish face had to go, cav clip carbon hood, side exhaust and a drop
but that came to a end as well.. I almost didn't make it outta this one..
so needing a new daily driver, i decided to splurge... and got her...
and a hint of what is to come...
thanks for looking...
I has been a fun trip, filled with tons of memories and lots of great friends.. can't wait to see whats next...

looks promising. the flat black was sweet with the rk kit. I'm sure the new paint with the razzi will look great tho.
paint will have to wait a bit longer again, I just got her back together enough to move her into my new house... after that I will work like mad..
I have no idea what state it will be in for the bash, but i'll do my best to get it there.. even if i have to tow it

WOW you did an amazing job on that Sunfire to Cavalier front end conversion. And sorry about what happend to the car glad your ok.
I know why the bags are gone...and where they're going
in a nutshell....he wants the car to be more racey...and there's nothing racey about bags....so it's for improved handling purposes
lip kit looks HAWT. I can't believe he parted ways with it....you got lucky you sonufabitch
See ya....well not may I guess....so whenever you move into the new house
