yep they where just as proud of the ground affects as the rims and half as proud of the console gauges. Witch make me laugh the gauge cluster has a trany temp and its a stick kinda of pointless in my opinion.

Congrats
The first one I have seen with those wheels and the ground effects.
My buddy had ordered his with the ground effects but latter dropped it from the order.

If you get a chance to test drive one you will be very disappointed. I worked on the tune a bit but it is still a slug. First gear feels like DOD is on but the sticks aren't supposed to have it.

Sure, that's his house. No more payments. That's how he can afford the car.


Very nice, turbot. That's the exact car my dad wants - color, options, etc. He was concerned about the quality of the ride with the huge wheels. He said if that were sitting in his driveway he'd get over it, though. Congrats on a beautiful car!

Very nice ride! First shot I've seen with the 21 inch wheels, and I like the color combo with them!

When I get back from NC Fruitville and Interstate. I know what it does against a 4 gen I have one 02 ws6. It losses lol. I'm in the process of tuning it. It is an absolute pig out of the hole and the cruise stopped about Atlanta.I had to re-flash the stock tune if It doesn't work after a computer reset.

Fantastic! Congrats!.....
I've been fortunate to have a few Camaros from '67 + up these many years gone by.
I think it's great that they even are producing this ride in this day & age with a type of old school personality and solid lifter 7.5 liter bigblock 454/450 LS6 type performance from 1970.

But the 21" wheels and rubber vs. 14"x6" bias ply tires on a '70 454/450 LS6 or 402/375 L78 look Great!
Stay safe, Go faster & Enjoy!

p.s.
let us know how it takes a shift after launching it with DR's & a Tune!
