Same here, only I was 10 and already wanted a 1st gen camaro or a 70 chevelle. BTW Hotwhip, that TA in your sig has a nasty stance. What rims are those and what suspension is it running? I would have to do away with my dual exhaust if I went that low though

8 years ago. Hmmm... I had 12 years in the army, was in Germany for the 3rd time and had been married for 8 years. I had owned about 15 cars by then and four of them were F-bodys 2 of those were 4th gen's. Man I feel really old all of a sudden. Thanks. LOL

8 years ago i was 15(almost 16) and owned 4 cars by the time i could actually drive at 16 lol i bought an '80 Monte Carlo, sold it and bought a '90 Cavalier , then sold that and got a '93 Lumina 4 door in Torch Red. hated that and bought a '93 White Lumina Z34 w/ 73k miles on it. That was the car i actually took my final behind the wheel test in. Passed on the first try. Fun times. 2 years later in '01 i bought my first F-body, a '00 Camaro V6 auto in Sebring Silver. It was a graduation present to myself. Had 22k miles on it when i bought it.~Cole~

I was 18 and that year would have prolly been the summer I swapped a 350 into my 86 Monte Carlo. That 350 ended up getting better mileage than the worn out 4.3 I pulled out that was using a quart of oil every time I filled up at the pump.
