  • Took a little but I picked up another F-body

    Not a v6 this time though...

    I sold my 2000 Firebird and bought a 2010 2SS before moving out to San Diego. I drove that for a little bit but honestly I didn't think the 5th Gen was for me. I sold my 5th gen and picked up a 2005 Honda s2000 that I auto X'd and stuff for about a year. Again I felt like it wasn't the car for me, I sold that to pick up a daily and an f-body. So now today I drive a 2014 CLA to and from work and I have a '99 z28 m6 that was pretty beat when I picked it up. 2 years, 4 cars, here are some pics!








    New Wheels:


    I know it isn't a v6, but I wanted to drop in and just say hi to the site that started my whole f-body addiction back in highschool.

    Your camaro looks pretty good now. The wheels are Ok. The 5 spoke chrome ones look better.

      Thanks, the body is super clean, and red, which is the primary reason I bought it. It's funny, the 5 spokes look great in pictures but sort of eh in person they are also some discount tire brand. The Forgelines are the opposite, I love them in person but when I look at a picture I question my photography skills. That black stripe also needs to go, probably for a cliche black hockey stripe and black mesh grill.

      On the docket immediately:
      -Trans rebuild and clutch install (as soon as 2nd gear gets delivered)
      -Tax refund season = new rear end
      -Suspension revamp, konis + lots of strano

      Then I need to figure out an engine solution to living in the people's republic of California, still not used to these smog laws.

            I don't get the plate?

            I don't remember a 4th Gen recall?

              It's more of a jab at Chevrolet in general. To be fair most of the car is going to be rebuilt anyways, so there will be a fair amount of non-GM parts :)
