i'm new to the f-body world but not new to modding everything i got sadley i dont have a car yet in the market cant find one i like my dream car would be a 01 02 ta ws6 black with a 6 speed and t tops i find lots but none that are black o well with tax time i'm sure more will show up

so my current rides are my 2006 gmc duramax 4 door short bed 4x4 it has dyoned a best of 460 hp and 820 tq not bad for just basic mods and generic tuning o well

next is the daily 1990 gmc serria 4x4 ext cab shortbed tbi 350 has like 300k on her and keeps on trucking just reacently split the case on the trans so its been down awhile trying to find a new case was hard but now it all back together but while it was down it devloped a running problem so it stuck at my moms house about 300miles away going to get it in like a month or so


next is my 69 chevy its a single cab long bed wood bed stepside 2wd with a 292 six and a 4 speed (hotrod i know) also rare needs to be restored but i wanna sell it cuz i'm never going to have the time to do so plus it will fund the t/a purchase

next i have a 08 yamaha raptor 700 pipe intake and tuning its a fun toy sadley dont ride it enough anymore might get sold


next i got a 02 yamaha 660 its in pieces was going to built it up but i dont ride the one i got why do i need two so when the motor done i'm selling it
