    Whats up I'm Chaz. Just recently bought a 2000 GTP. Figured the best place to research is forums so here I am. I'm new to these cars and boost for the most part. I like HP and Chevy's so i think I'll like the gtp. Little story about it. I work in a body shop and it was one of the cars we buy to fix and flip. I just happened to like it so within the week it'll be finished and in my name. It was T-boned. I myself welded in a new quarter, rocker, door post etc. I did the body work and based it then a co worker cleared it. Came out nice and great fitment. Anyways here it is. Stock and all lol.

    This is in the middle of it. No rear window or interior. The previous rocker was shoved into the center console lol. I don't have any pics before i cut the damage out.




    All welded in and in body work.





    Fitment is key. New Door.




    Little bit of base coat to cut it in.



    Wet Clear.



    Dry and washed.



    Oh i'm a minitrucker lol. My project.

    It takes some skill but its not hard. Just tedious. I love it. Welding, painting, wrenching. The truck right now is getting a t-56 put in as soon as i get this gtp in my name. So i guess i'm half way to an LS Swap lol. Id kill to find an ls2 for it.
