Default Pics of my new DD

I bought this from a friend of mine about a month ago. Just now had decent enough weather to half *** wash it and snap a couple of pics. I know I need to polish my headlights! Some of the pics didn't turn out that well...don't know what the deal with my camera was.

Nice car! Looks like she needs a little TLC with the paint. A little wax and a buff goes a long way! Nice buy bro!

Goddamn those are my favorite wheels ever... when I go for a nice set of wheels, those will be it. What are they listed as? I know they came on the LT1 SS Camaros but is that how they are found online?

Gorgeous car. Not what I expected of a DD.

Thanks for the kind words everyone. I still have a ways to go to get it cleaned up the way I want...I'm kind of ocd about my cars.

The paint does need a little work...when I get some time I'll go over the whole car really well. I may just repaint it.

Kalgorn- those are factory SS wheels. They are called ZR1's. You can get them just about anywhere. Check Tomzwheels they're a sponsor ---------->

98_Formula- I'm glad you said that...I've been kind of up in the air about the hood.

Next, well after springs, headlights, and tint, I want to put new leather seats in...front and back. What's in there is kind of trashed. I just don't have the cash to do that right now.

Hmm... I didn't think they were standard ZR1s. Shows how much I know.

Good looking car man, but the hood does nothing for me. I don't think it flows at all, too many sharp lines on a soft lined car. Other than that it look GREAT IMO.

That's why I've been up in the air about it. I can't decide if I really like it or not.

I don't think it looks bad better than a stock hood. But I really like the sonoco style hold the best for a ls1 cars.
