i've seen probably all of my favorite SS's already in this thread. some nice cars

as someone already pointed out, my car used to be black. i just painted it last year, i didnt have enought patience for the black. it is a real SS (not that it really matters), and the color is Electron Blue.

behind the rear seats is a little toasty. if the insurance guy ever shows up today i will know what my course of action is. I plan to buy a nice roller, (already have a few in mind), swap all my go fast into it, and build my blue car back up. I will just pick at it here and there, but it'd be getting full tubs, tin'd rear half, cage, the TH400 i have laying around, and new paint.

How could he not be? Compared to the other cars in this thread mine is nothing special, from a looks alone standpoint it would be at the bottom of the pile. It just a really low mile SS with Wax and 3k wheels.

The rest are all extremely sweet there are a couple of VERY clean stock ones, how often do you see that when your out on the town? The rest have some major money into appeareance. The black on iforged is probably the nicesiest LS1 around. That 69 is flat out stupid, the others are all tastfully done. The red on black zr1 is clean, has the right stance really pulls it off.

All that said even if someone from Alaska posted a rusted out fenderwell with a pink manta strip that he cleaned up and took a picture of, who cares. The person loves there car (and probably other men) and wanted to show off a bit. I just don't get why people get upset about it. I see vettes at shows that want to make me puke but the guy owning it is as proud as he can be. Who am I to tell him he is wrong.

Now I'm not saying that we shouldn't make fun of pink mantra guy from alaska but he has the right and I hope they do post up if thier car is an SS they think is sweet.

Really like that blended CME!!! Its amazing how I would never think to do a black wheel setup but then someone like you pulls it off perfectly. Some how it makes those wheels look high dollar instead of stack 10 spokes!

Nice car!
