I really like the painted upper radiator support too, havent seen that before.

Ah, so you are one of those guys that automatically assumes a v6 isn't worth your time huh? It's an f-body and that's all that should really matter in my opinion. But I know how it is to own a v6 for awhile and keep crap from people like you and others, so I guess I have a different perspective then most LS1 owners.

Thanks for the after comment though I guess LOL

It's all been done over time since 2001. The first couple years there were a lot of appearance and some performance done to the 3.8L. The LS1 was put in it about 3 years ago, and then all the other engine mods and suspension as well since then.

Yeah I have to be pretty careful in most places. In some pictures you can tell where I've hit the front in a couple times

All I can say is WOW! Very nicely done, I think the next f-bod i get will be an unabused v-6. I think thats the best way to go if you want a car built exactly like you want, engine, transmission, rear end, gears, suspension, wheel and tire possiblities are endless. Great car man.
