Cool Some old pics of my TA that Ive never posted before.

I havent whored out my car in a very long time, so I figured I'd post some pics up from when I was doing photoshoots for the 2007 LS1tech calendar The pics are a few years old, but really, nothing has changed appearance-wise since then other than the front license plate cover is on now lol. The front bumper has also been repainted because it was a bit scuffed up, as you can see in these pics, from dragging on speed bumps and driveways, etc.

Very nice combo. I'm guessing those were taken at a school, nice scenery as well.

Yea, the ones with the steps are at the OSU tulsa campus. The others above are in a nice business district (dr & dentists offices, etc).

I wouldn't say the pics are big, or maybe I am spoiled by using large monitors. One pic barely fills 60 percent of the screen. A good size to see the detail.

Good looking car with a nice stance.

I always cringe when I see women posing on cars. "Easy on the paint, Honey."

Nothing wrong with your hood. Most people associate the Mecham hood with poor craftmanship, that's all.

At least it's not a ws6 clone.

No, yea, i know most people have bad impressions about the quality, but I'm talking more about comments like this: https://ls1tech.com/forums/8926781-post5.html and https://ls1tech.com/forums/5180796-post24.html

seems like these guys just come out of the woodwork to hate on my car in particular for some reason

Appreciate all the compliments so far everyone

I was starting to worry that I was gonna miss out on a comment like that. Thanks tyler! I can always count on you to let me down

I do way better when allowed to have a bounce with beer pong! I still don't see how you can consider it "pong" without a bounce! ella mayo
