I'm glad it went to a good home.

Im pretty sure i recall seeing pics of that car with the red GS stripes on the fender

I know the wheels used to be gray like on the ZR1 so thats def possible. Thanks man.. I am glad it went to me too.

I was pretty happy about the value I got on this, but I really got excited when I tallied up the invoices the previous owner spent just in 2008 at one shop doing most of the suspension, wiring, and roll cage/bracing work.... just a touch under $30k and probably 2/3 of that was labor!

Funny, I was calling this thing the "Grand Sport Camaro" to a couple others when I was considering it.

Man, you know what would really help that car---some 20's all the way around--full polished. Gaps look good from the pics-----PASS.

20s? Hell no. Way too small. I have Rushforth designing me some badass 30s. Yes, you read that right.

These gaps get a pass? I evidently have not showed a good pic of the 3" gap in the sweet fiberglass hood.

No worries---Go to Ironworks.com and click on the "Panel Gap Spray". You have to keep reapplying, like Rogain, but it works. Try the Disc Brake Spray as well if you are suffering from drum brake reality. Be careful though, i oversprayed the "Big Arm" spray on my neck and now i can barely turn my head. I am starting to look like Tito Ortiz.

If you keep pimping this gap product Doug I think Scott is gonna make you pay for some sponsorship.

Ok, got a couple used parts that will be installed ASAP.

I anticipate these Spintech Pro Street mufflers to be quite loud


nice clean 2-speed Mark VIII fan off CL for $55.

Indeed! You can barely call those mufflers! Baffles maybe?
Should sound sick regardless.
