Default 2000 T/A and SS "Scales" Photoshoot

We found these scales and tested them out

They are very accurate - we weighed ourselves just standing on them and they were within 10 lbs.

Weights (full tank of gas and no driver):

My 2000 Trans Am: 3500 lbs
Kolin's 2000 Camaro SS: 3480 lbs

They do say "no trespassing" on them, but oh well

This winter I did the following to my TA (bought it last fall)

1. Repainted front end
2. C5 Deep Dish wheels
3. Strano Springs
4. Founders LCAs and PHB
5. MGW Shifter
6. Shaved side moldings and lettering
7. CETA mod
8. Tinted windows and T-Tops
9. Front bird decal
10. Engine bay clean-up
11. Polished tail lights and center panel
12. eBay drilled rotors and pads - also painted calipers and rotor hats

This winter we also did a H/C/I swap on the SS

Both cars look sweet. I absolutely LOVE the look of black C5 DDs with a machined lip.

I have to admit, if I saw a working scale with no one around......I'd drive on it too.

Thanks Brent! Yes, it was a bit of work to get it to sit right, but it was worth it!!

I'll be sure to forward your compliments onto Mr. Meow
