As well, it simply blows me away how much technology has advanced in regards to paint. Solid colours were the only choice. Then they came out with mini-metalflake paint. Then those big flakes we saw so much of in the 70's. Then pearl-type paints in the 90's.
And now water-droplet finishes?
Is there no end to the creativity of manufacturers?
Thank you all. I really get a lot from these kind of posts. I have not had a lot of energy lately due to school and 70 hour work weeks. Now that school is a lot slower and I am not working as much, I seem to have a lot more energy. Huh, go figure. Plan on seeing some cool things in the future.
Anyways, no sub in CC, just the 12's in the back.
thanks again.

96' Chevy Astro Cargo. Custom paint. 5.7 Vortec motor stroked out to a 383ci. 17" wheels Dad stripped it.
well, it was a good day do be an Astro owner. I took the van to AP tuning here in columbus Ohio and they dyno'd the van for me so I could get a base HP and torque number. Drove it to work, to the dyno shop, three pulls and it drove home with out a scratch. Here are the pictures,........and video. BTW, the last pull was with the A/C on, just to see how much it killed power.
dont know where vance was gonna post this at but figured the last dyno info was here add more here. well he had the day off and i took the day off so we could get his van dyno tuned. so we took his van through hell yesterday through ohio wonderul winter and all looked well. well wake up today crank no start.......fuel pump died!!!! so im wating him to pick up his line wrenches and the fuel pump and figured id post out here in the garage are little adventures!!
