Pics of mine the day I bought it......it is in progress currently. The Foose wheels were on it, not my cup of tea but they will be getting changed out soon and then I can fit my brand new Brembo's.

I was reminiscing on this pic of two lt1 black verts I took the day I sold the ta. And decided that day I'd also plan to sell the Z and step up to an LS powered SS also being a black drop top. I just wish there was more time to cruise and less road work!

I cleaned her up, had to get a pic I just haven't driven it a lot lately. I think it helps appreciate it more tho I should've put the boot cover on for the pic. Together with the light bar which I've transferred from my older z vert it really sets it off.

Just got some new shoes on the C5 Vert. I plan to lower it a bit in the future.

Thanks Cajun.....yours is very nice too!

Calipers were $387ish for the pair (ebay) included the Powerstop ceramic pads and hardware kit. Rotors were from Autozone $58.00 ea. Stainless brake lines were from KORE3 $75 for the pair. Wheels are a +35 offset (NEEDED for clearance) and were $105 each.
