Default Time to get her back!

I'm just about getting back in the groove of things with my life, and got me a promotion, and hopefully another raise when I study and pass my MECP Advance test.

Simply, I miss my Camaro. I'm thinking about it more and more everyday. So I hopped on and got back on this forum, and it is amazing to still see what people is doing for the love of these machines. I want back in the game!!!

I even posted it on Facebook a couple of weeks ago:

"Ok Think I've made up my mind, and I'm going to try and get a Chevy Camaro again! I've been really thinking about it lately and realized how much I loved that car. I had worked hard to get it and felt like someone took it away from me. I will get the same body style I had (98-02) T-Top. This time, It will be a V8 manual transmission. I will put the "Studio Sound" in it by adding Bi-Amped speakers, and I will also add a two way remote start to it, as well as some "Power Adders"

As for my Volvo S70, I will most likely still keep it as a DD. It will get some minor updates, and some much needed ones as changing a much needed suspension upgrade, fix the dents on the Pass side, and get rid of the awful squeaky brakes! I'll Also upgrade the deck for a Bluetooth version for hands free calling and GPS voice direction from my phone. That is what I think I will do! YESSIR!"
So yea. I'm going to work and get me an F-Body again!!! Same body style, 98-2002, T-Top, but V8 this time around. I'm going to my bank next week and see about opening like a savings account to try and save up for this.

I know this is a little pointless to some, but hey, I miss my car. Time to get it back!!!

Think at some point we've all been there and done that. I sold my original 01 in 06 to get through grad school. I picked up the 01 in my sig back in october as a pure virgin starting point that needed some love and was owned by a dr. It's still under construction but when done will be the below car.

Yea. It is something that doesn't leave you. It's like I don't feel like it is right I don't have the car.

Willdo! I'm Thinking '98-02 Style, Z28 or SS, Manual Trans. I'm planning to install the best stereo system I've ever installed in it, with a second battery, New instruments gauge cluster with A-Pillar gauge cluster, Add new Hood and Wing, install projectors & HID's, Change the taillight assembly, add some suspension kit, Magnaflow pipes, maybe a Fast intake & manifold, Change the wheels and tires, get better brakes, a stronger rear axle, and then add Nitrous and S/C. So yea a lot of stuff but we'll see if I can pull it off!
