DO IT! I've always wanted a car seat as my gamming chair...

Its more of a function not form thing. I am 5ft7 170lbs. I move around in the seat like a mofo, so this keeps me in the seat untill I find a set of seats I want and don't brake the bank. After that I am not going to be moving anywhere!

And Tony, I used to have a pair of seats I got for free from a 2000 cavalier. Mounted them to a base, grabbed a console from the scrap yard and had the perfect gaming seats, with ash tray, cup holder, and storage. Lol.

I'm gonna start messing with it tonight if nothings going on.

^^HAHA! Thats awsome..I want a set up like that..Lol...

Small updates...

Made a bracket to mount the plate outside the car, and took a shot with the backseat out, and harness in.

859Toaster · 05-26-2009, 10:51 PM

Got working on it a bit today for a cruise in tomorrow. Looky, Gold bB Badge.... (gangsta!) and I painted the grill since it started to fade.

There will be two more new pics in the background image post.... They are just too nice to not put in that category.

^haha! Yeah..I saw it before I said that..Thats why I said it..LMAO!

Well, she's about to be turned back to stock (see my post in xB parts for sale for whats for sale right now), and I figured I'd give the car a few more shots.

The hood has been re-primed (needs wet sanded and sprayed again. ran out of primer). The interior is back to pretty much stock. And the suspension comes off tomorrow (already spoken for).

But why back to stock you ask? Well, I am planning a move to North Carolina, but need some money to do so. It's an 11hr drive and I am moving to Havelock NC. Basically I am moving to start a new. New job, new location, near the beach

, and once I get my credit cards paid down some more, new car. (08 or 09 cobalt strip down 2 door. Test drove one the other and liked it. Or may go back to my roots, and get another cavalier. This time a 03-05 LS Sport 5spd)

So here's she is. In her final glory.

xBtony · 06-14-2009, 10:34 PM

Awwwwwww...Im soo sad..Haha! Car was deff a trend setter...or something like that..

859Toaster · 06-14-2009, 10:46 PM

Now its a 4x4! I did a little off roading today in it. Was fun. Then I almost rolled it going around a turn at 70mph. Can't do that anymore. (i forgots)

But the hard part was done today, no more suspension. Now to find someone to buy my wheels, the big part of it will be done.

xBtony · 06-14-2009, 10:51 PM

^LOL! Good thing u didnt flip it..it would make it a lil harder to sell..HAHA!
