Default Its VERY Red

These pictures arn't anything special, its just my front yard. I just got the car here last night, but today I ripped off the front bumper guard, and did the markers in nightshade... Enjoy!

For those of you who don't know, I scorred a near mint 1998 Camaro Z28 T56 for 6,300. 88k, and only one flaw, and I have a picture of it.


Here's the very minor damage, getting a quote for repair on friday.

Wider IS better.

Horrible picture. The guy who had it prior had XM obviously. Its as easy as taking off the cover, and cutting some wires, but I'm really lazy, and its getting dark.





Who is that peering?

I took the grill out for now... I HATE those cheap looking unpainted plastic factory pieces in there... I'd rather have holes in my bumper. SLP insert will be placed there after it is color matched.

Well, this car was pure luck. I go down to central cali all the damn time for business. One day when I was leaving a meeting I was walking back to my car when I noticed this bright red Camaro with a FOR SALE sign on it. I noticed the asking was 6500, so I immediatly thought it was an auto, or some thing was seriosly wrong with it.

Well after inspecting/driving the vehical for 200 miles now, there still isn't a flaw besides that minor ding on the passenger side.

Excellent buy! The prices of these cars seem to be dropping fairly rapidly. I guess that is both good and bad.

Modesto... I don't know where SLO is. I thought that was just a term for a stock mustang

The bank appriased the car for 10,200, so I figure I just happened to find a damn good deal.
