Default My ride

Here are some pics of my car. It is a 2000 Trans am WS6. This car was bought when it only had 15k on it. It now has 129K. It is my daily driver and also my car show car. I take it to Atlanta every year to the Fbody Gathering. This year, I won first place in my class which was stock modified. It is a really fun car! I will do a little street racing in which I usually win. This car is a very storng car for the small amount of mods it has. I have beat up on many cammed ls1 cars and of course the ls2 C6 and GTO's. I dont race the car a lot and I dont take it to the track. I owe my tuning to "Gomer". He done a great job and I will recommend him to any of you. He is on this board as Gomer. Any who, here it is...

LOOKS GOOD! I have that same lid. Get some custom fuel rail covers the corvette is cool but it would be bad *** if you could get something custom to do with your car. But some people like the corvette style!

A Ws6 with the early style 17" rims is my favorite.

Thanks man. I had once thought about the customized covers, but I decided to keep the car in a "stock form".

I get a lot of complements on the wheels. The only thing I wish for is that they came chrome. I keep them waxed up, so they stay blinging.

Oh yeah, I am very sure! The car stays waxed up and I do weekly trips to Nashville all the times. The car does not have any chips, but I guess it is from how I take care of it...

Man, those are nice! Do you have a link for those? Also, it would be good if they came in 18's. I love the stock look of a modded car...
