Default New NHRA Trans Am

Some of you may remember the last two cars I had that I kinda did a little "build" thread on (maybe nobody remembers who the hell knows, I enjoy it so im doing it again haha).

Today I went down to South Mississippi and picked up my next car.
It is a 2002 Trans Am NHRA edition, black leather, c6 wheels, nothing special. Got a pretty good deal on it imho. So here goes the start to finish pics. Just got her home. (crappy pics)




HOLY LOW EXHAUST


And my last two for whoever cares

Looks great OP; very clean. I think I like the C6 wheels better though. Just not that big a fan of all black wheels, but to each his own.
