WS6 car, huh? Nice!
It looks to be in very good shape. Nice find.
When it comes time for rims, don't forget Year One has 17x9 snowflakes.
I think that would look killer in black w/ a polished black-centered snowflakes.
If you go w/ black and gold, the gol trimmed snowflakes look REALLY nice too.

Yeah there were jack stands under it, my auto tech teacher was telling me about one kid that got injured because he was using a cheap jack without jack stands. The jack started to drop but he managed to roll himself out in time but still cut up his hand on the frame rail or something. So I started using them after that.


And yes, 17in snow flame rims Is there any pics of these on a car?


Going to get it started today, video up later First run in 5 years.

Thanks man! I love the BRE rims but they are too much, so 17in Snow Flakes are the way to go, would like to see what 17 or 18 inch TT2's would look like, but I want to keep it fairly stock looking.

I tried to start the car today, and about an inch or two of gas shot up out of the carburetor. I already bought a rebuild kit so my stepdad and I are going to work on it when he gets home. Hopefully she will run today.
Going to flush the brake lines tomorrow and then the Camaro is probably going to be sold

Also, putting up a pic of a car with 17inchers. Definitely a win, but the car looks like it needs to be lowered a little.
