Default Took the Camaro out for a drive...

I haven't drove my Camaro since showing at Super Chevy I guess I just needed a brake after all the time I put into it. So it's been sitting out side covered by my Noah California Cover, been through a couple of rainy and windy days. All I did was take the cover off and use my California duster on it. It's been sitting outside for over a month and it still looks good! I just drove around town with the T-tops off. I saw another clean SOM SS drive by that I've never seen around. Driving her has re-lit the fire and has got me wanting to dump more money into her that I don't have lol. Nothing special but I haven't took any pictures in a while, enjoy.

In some of the pictures it looks like the stripes aren't lined up in the front, but they are. It's a gap because my front bumper is sagging down for some reason. I need to figure out how to adjust it...*17 PICTURES*
