Default New guy from El Paso Texas
Hey I'm a college student and Marine in the reserve here in El Paso TX just bought my first F-body and love it... was about to get a honda s2000 but z28Dave talked me out of it and boy am I glad he did this car is awesome! Can't wait to begin modifying it oh I almost forgot I have a black 2002 Camaro SS T56 T-top with Magnaflow exhaust
