This is my first W-body, and my main project.  It is a 1988 Cutlass Supreme BASE model, and I have done the most too it.  As you can tell by the pics, it is no longer a BASE, but the vin still says BASE, so I call it that.

This is the one that got my custom built engine, and most of my attention.  Now that I am getting it wrapped up, I am going to start on my NEXT project.

EXTERIOR:





INTERIOR:



The BEAST 3100MPFI:





This is my second car.  It is a 1990 Grand Prix STE with the 3.1 MPFI engine.  I did not intend to buy this car, but it was on ebay, and I wanted to watch the auction, but I could not get the WATCH feature to work, so I bid the minimum on it, and ended up winning it for only $200 (but I had to pick it up and trailer it home seeing it had a bad headgasket).  It had a lot wrong with it when I got it, but I was fine with that.  I was wanting another project car, but when I got this one running, I decided not to mess with it.  It gets 42 MPG on the highway, and if I have the AC off, and the wind is blowing with me, then I get up to 50 MPG.  Needless to say, I do NOT want to touch this cars engine until I have a reason too.

EXTERIOR:







My MODIFIED rear brake lights:



INTERIOR (I have replaced the door speakers since these pics were taken, so I no longer have those FUGLY yellow things in there):











This is my third W-body.  It is a 1995 Cutlass Supreme SL coupe with the 3.4 DOHC.  I bought it here locally for $300.00.  It has a bad engine, and does not run (I can run it long enough to move the car, but it has a BAD knock, so I don't move it often).  The engine is bad, and the interior is trashed, so I decided that this is going to be the car that I get kinda EXTREME on.  I am not reveling a lot of details about my plans for it right now, but seeing that the body is good, I don't want to get rid of it anytime soon.

EXTERIOR:





iNTERIOR:





ENGINE:





This is my last car.  It is a 1996 Pontiac Grand Prix SE Mary Kay edition.  I had intended this to be my project car (it was my mothers, and it was arranged that I would get it when she got her new car), but unfortunantly she was rear ended, and the body twisted totalling the car.  Since I knew the condition of the drivetrain, I decided to buy that car back from the insurance company.  Besides, the insurance company refused to let me remove the things I had installed into the car (the HUD, the larger 3100 upper and lower intake manifolds, the keyless entry, shit like that).  I bought the car back for only $200, and recently have used the engine in one of my cars.  

These are pics of the pink car when it was still in its prime (before the wreck).

EXTERIOR:





INTERIOR:



2000 Grand Prix HUD I installed in the 96:



ENGINE:  It was originally an L82 VIN M 3100, but I did the intake manifold swap to the LG8 3100 VIN J, and put a larger throttle body on it.



And here is a pic AFTER the wreck:





Here is one last pic.  I lovingly call them "MY THREE SON'S".  The hood is not on the gold car at the time because I was installing the new engine when I took this pic.

Fortunantly mom was not hurt.  She was stopping for a SCHOOL BUS.  The guy behind her was SPEEDING (he was doing 90 in a 45).  She saw it coming, and she FLOORED it, and starting heading into the ditch. (might have saved her life).

The people that saw the wreck was impressed because they saw it happening, and saw her floor it, and the tires were spinning and shit (three of them offered to buy the car for the engine).

Mom says she is grateful for the work I did to the engine.  Doing that intake swap adds some power, and she used to joke that if she ever floored it, the car would pop a wheelie.

Dad hated me working on her car (he was jealous that I would not work on his truck).

I drove my Cutlass Supreme for the first time today since I rebuilt the engine.  I used the engine from the pink car to rebuild the engine in my Cutlass.  When I started it up, mom started crying.  She said she was just glad that her car could help with the HEART transplant (I used her complete block (other than the cam), and in some way the pink car would live on.

She REALLY liked that car.  It NEVER got lost in a parking lot.  She was mostly pissed that the kid that hit her did not have insurance, and he is getting away with this scott free.  Her insurance company did nothing to help her out, and they DID total the car, but only after about 2 months of her fighting with them.  If ANYONE here has STATE FARM, I personally recommend dropping them, and go to someone else.

yeah, the site is http://www.3100mpfi.com

I have not updated the site in quite some time.  It has been a good two years since I updated it, and even still I only have my 1988 Cutlass shown on it.

If you want to see more pics of the pink car, they are located at http://www.3100mpfi.com/MaryKay

Most of the Cutlass Supreme pics are pretty current, but there are some minor changes.  I don't have the Aurora shifter in it anymore, but I might put it back in.  Shit like that.

I am getting ready to redo it all, and show off my other cars as well.
