Nuke's Black 1SS/RS M6

Obtained September 23rd, 2010. First mods done were changing the bowties to blue to instill a retro look. The look I am going for is a tasteful, subtle retro look. Basically, I am modernizing the classic "muscle car custom" look of the 60's and 70's with the cowl hood, torq-thrust wheels, and hurst shifter. But that's it... no needless chrome, no fake bumpers, etc. etc. Less is more for me.

Mod goals are as follows...

Appearance mods:
- MPD Cowl Induction Hood
- Hugger orange SLP Hockey stripes
- 'LS3' emblems in front of marker lights, 4-1/4" long, 3/4" tall
- Torq Thrust M’s, 20 inches, Anthracite
- Pfadt Lowering Springs
- 'Hurst-Equipped' badge to go on left side of trunk lid
- Inferno Orange interior trim panels
- Lloyd’s Floor Mats
- Blue bowties

Performance mods:
- Aftermarket Hurst short-throw shifter with T-handle knob
- Cherry Bomb Extreme Series catback exhaust
- 4-pack Gauges

Anything in green has already been bought and is awaiting installation. Here are pics of the car after the bowties have been switched out. It was my first official mod...





















I'll keep you guys posted as the mods come in and go on!
