Smile back in the fbody world

i had gotten rid of my NBM 98 firebird a year ago due to having bad luck with it.
a month ago picked up (coincidentally) NBM 01 camaro z28. taking it slow this time around rather than throwing mods at it. trying to enjoy driving it this time around. its another A4. no pics though but the exterior's got a few dents, dings, clear coat peeling at the typical areas but i'll save up to get repaired and repainted. for the price and year i'm not complaining (124k miles for $3200) with a worn driver side axle bearing.

only has tune and cutout installed on the awesome 2.73 gears . just changed the diff fluid and will be changing the motor oil soon. trans fluid color looks fine and leveled. next few things are a lid, trans auxiliary cooler, and possibly get the speed engineering LT headers. just trying to hold out as long as i can from the mod bug to bite me to get into a built trans, converter, and cam haha
