...or has it? I just happened to come across a scan of the pic in my old 3.4L Camaro, and thought it was funny that I have a pic in my Z thats almost the same exact shot (same thing with the pic of the cars both in parking lots), so I thought it was kinda funny lol.

Yeah that sucked... the front bumper was flawless when I got it. Started by just barely nudging a tall curb one day which cracked the paint, then it just kept spreading and peeling off until the whole front bumper looked like ***.

"The more things change, the more they stay the same."

Yeah, 8 years ago I was a college senior, driving my '94 Z28 (in its pre-mod stage). Now, 8 years later, my '94 is a garage queen, and I daily-drive my '99 Z, weather permitting.

When you were 10 I had already owned 3 different F-bodies, about 6 other cars besides that, and been married for a year already!

Eight years ago I was fourteen. However I still have my 98 from five years ago. Also, I recently picked up a 95 which is currently being torn apart for a LSX or LS3 project car. When its done, the 95 will become a garage queen that I drive only on nice weekends .
