Here's my (2) - don't drive either of them on a daily basis. One stock - the other highly modified. Looking to make it (3) - I need a 78 Black & Gold Special Edition for the wife.
I either find P.O.S. that need way to much resto, or others that owners want $30k for. Saw the 80 Turbo TA go for $63k on Barrett-Jackson the other day - that's just redonculous

Thanx! I only installed the WingsWest Front Spoiler - rest are factory ground effects.
I liked the fact that once the WW front spoiler was on - the ground effects were at the same level all around the car - the stock front fascia is higher then the side skirts from the factory and looks like something is missing...

I have 3 but only 2 are driveable at the moment. I took the 70 SS396 out last Sat and Sun and use my 2000 SS as my daily driver. It was a little tough getting home tonight in the snow! It took me 20 tries to get up the driveway and still couldn't make it into the garage! Oh well, it will melt tomorrow so no big deal. If you enjoy the cars, get as many as you think you'll really use.

I have 3, a '99 T/A as my DD, a '00 SS for the weekends, and a '79 T/A that is being freshened up. I've driven my '99 for the past 3 years as a DD and its not bad, definitly the coolest car at work. Im not to worried about gas mileage since I only drive 6 miles to work.

I had my 86 & 98 at the same time for a while. the 86 got given away very soon. I am thinking about another 98 to turn into a full on track car or a first gen or 70 for fun. But currently only the 00 SS.

I have the two in my sig. During April-November last yr the camaro was my DD, it was ****** eh! Im gonna have to sell it come spring, but its been fun. The TA has always been a low milage once in a way car(1500k or 1000mi/yr). When I had to start driving the GTP in Nov I was A) always lookin for a clutch pedal and B) thinking, wow this things slow!!
.
Having a two is pretty good, I esp like havin both a TA and a Camaro(best of both worlds....even tho the TA is *cough*better*cough*)

Before the sale of the z28, this was a 2 fbody household, oh what a happy time it was. I daily drove my car for about a year and a half and loved it for it, except for winter!
I would LOVE to get another (LS1, not an LT1 fan) as a nice-day daily. But if you do get snow, it is not practical. If not, it is a great daily driver. Mine was always stock/close to stock and automatic (a top reason I sold it). But nevertheless it was fun. If you don't have snow, or have means around it, go for it.
