Default Camaro chick from Iowa

Hello everyone! I'm new on this site and wanted to introduce myself.

I've been a car chick since I was 12 and would read every car magazine I could get my hands on: Motor Trend, Car & Driver, Hot Rod, etc.

Recently purchased a '69 Camaro 454 4-speed (my dream car). I've only wanted one since I was 12! I'm hoping all this snow melts soon cause I'd like to burn a little rubber!

Car salesmen piss me off when they assume I want an automatic. One time I went to test drive a manual and the salesman didn't believe I could drive a stick. After getting the car out on the highway he said "I guess you can drive a stick." No sh*t!

Well, that's a little about me!

More pics of the exterior. In the sun, the blue is lighter/brighter and looks metallic.

I LOVE the cobalt blue color! Blue is my favorite color!

Here's what we know on the engine mods: new cam, ceramic coated headers, aluminum intake, Edelbrock carb, Milodon large volume oil pan, aluminum radiator and electric fan.

Front has an updated subframe with coil over shocks. Rear has a 4-link with standard shocks and we're looking into putting coil overs on it to lower the ride height a little.
