Smile I bought a LS1 SS

Well I bought a 1999 Camaro SS Bright Red A4, t-tops grey leather, Chrome 10 Spokes. Car has 66,000 miles on it. I bought it off a girl that had it here in St. Louis, Mo and I have always wanted a SS. When she put it up for sale I wanted it!!! So I bought it!

Mods are SLP Loudmouth catback, SLP Lid, G2 10 bolt girdle & Hotchkis STB. More mods to come soon with LCA's, LCA Relo's, Panhard bar, and SFC's.

Here is a pic of the car from when she had it. car looks same now I will get new pics up sometime this week when the car isnt dirty and about to rain outside.

Nice ride...

Just how loud is that Loudmouth? Is there much of a drone?

I ordered a LM, but wussed out and switched to Magnaflow before the LM was shipped...

yes the car was owned by a girl named Stephanie she Lived in St. Charles, MO, has been in CamaroSSonline's Callendar and GM high performance Magazine. That car is VERY VERY clean and I feel bad haveing to let it sit outside till I can clean the garage out more to fit it in there!

the Loudmouth isnt that bad! at about 2000RPM's its got a little drone but nothing bad! I like it alot I'm glad it came on there I was gonna buy one either way!

Thanks for the complements!!!

I gave $11,500.00 but that was discounted down from the dammage that is on the passenger side Quater pannel from her backing into her dads explorer and it needed new tires... but still got a GREAT deal on it! The tires are getting put on Tuesday night and the car goes into the body shop in two weeks.

and thanks for the commplent!!!

Nice ride.

Get the black SS grille from SLP. It would look cool on your car.
