Hey guys, not necessarily a FNG, long time member that finally found my way back into another one of God's gifts to the automotive world, the f body. My first f body was a 2001 Z28 in bright rally red. Bought the car bone stock, by the time I regrettably sold it it was full bolt on, 3.73, full exhaust, dyno tune, full stage 2 trans rebuild, etc.

My 2nd go round was a SOM 02 z28. Drove it for a while and had little to no funds for mods after having a daughter, and unfortunately after about 8 months of driving, another driver pulled out in front of me and clipped him doing about 45. Totaled the car. Long story short, I used the insurance money to buy a home instead of another car and spent the last 2 years driving a turd but my family was taken care of.

Finally, today, I stuck my feet back in the water. I picked up a black 02 z28 with 114k on the clock. Auto, t top, tan leather, the car is in incredible shape. It feels good to be back fellas!

Thanks Mike

Early the plans for the new one first and foremost are wheels, even though I can't make up my mind at all on what I want. Definitely no black and most likely chrome. The car already has a muffler delete (done right actually!) and a slp lid. Appearance stuff for now but will work on free mods soon. Next step after that will likely be longtubes but I need to get the neighbors used to the car first haha
