About this Current Vehicle:
I started looking for an Fbody at the end of February 08. I found my Z on the internet in March 08. We drove 18.5 hours with truck and trailer to pick her up in Manassas, VA. It was well worth it! Very clean car, with 389XX miles on it. NO MODS at all. I can't wait to start making her my own!

New Shoes
Swapped out the stock rims for chrome 10 spoke SS wheels. Got the bowtie centercaps for them. Put Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tires on them. I've put about 300 miles on them this weekend and I'm very happy with them.
Next up is swapping out the rotors and brake pads and painting the calipers.
Hopefully will be getting the used headers I bought re-coated and will be installing them with the ORY and Magnaflow cat back soon

First Car Show
Cleaned her up and went to her very first show Saturday July 19th. Didn't win anything, but had fun and got a few compliments on the car. Even met a guy that has a sport gold metallic that I hope to catch up with so we can take some pics of our cars together.
Oh and the headers and y pipe are sitting in the shop with the Magnaflow exhaust along with a Fast Toys Ram Air kit that I got for free 
Now to just find the time to get it all put on there.

mods...
Well Father's Day weekend I added the rear stainless steel CAMARO inserts. Will get some pics up as soon as I clean the car up.
The Magnaflow is sitting in the shop awaiting installation, but I think I'm going to wait til I pick up the headers and ORY and install it all at the same time.
Brakes!!! I need to get them changed soon...Gary's got a full set of rotors, I think I need to get some pads to with them tho. Oh and I want to paint my calipers. Since I'm going with chrome wheels, I think I'm going to paint them purple Was thinking a nice gold would do too but I don't want a blinged out metallic gold. Leaning towards LSU gold. But I think that might be kinda cheesy...Anyway, that's about it for now.
