It has been quite some time since I've had this car out and about. It was purchased in September of 1994 at Dan Young Chevrolet in Indianapolis. My dad ordered it for his "Midlife crisis" birthday. It now resides at my families house. My daughter got her first ride in it yesterday.
I learned to drive in this car and my wife and I drove it away from our wedding reception.
It isn't a "classic" in the normal sense of 60's muscle cars, but it represents something very special to me.
As it sits she has 40,051 miles on the clock - so it isn't necessarily a garage queen in the typical sense of "buy it and park it".
Thank you for looking.
1. She had been sitting for a while and was covered in dust. But washed and waxed for the nice summer weather.

2. A few bolt-on modifications.

3. Dynoed 273hp and 320 lb/ft at the wheels a few years back.

4. Still riding on 245/50ZR16 Goodyear Eagle GSC tires.

5. Medium Patriot Red Metallic is hard to find touch up paint for. But she is holding up fine.

6. The leather has held up quite nicely. Lost of Lexol conditioner has been used over the years.
