Default Hello People

Hi everybody! I just picked up this car for around $11,500.00.


http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=4616249131


I had a 98 Z28 a few years ago but i had to sell it and i was on these fourams. I dont know the old name i had so i made a new one. It was a long time ago. I looked around for a good deal for a while and i cant wait to get my car i sould have it in no more hten 2 weeks.

My first step is going to be zr1 rims. The car come with most of the basic upgrades. One day ill do cam headers and maybe heads.

GLAD TO BE BACK

Pretty nice. Those painted stock rims don't look too bad. Works well with the silver.

I've driven my car from pittsburgh PA to parkcity UT, (2000 miles) four times in the past few years with out any problems. I also don't like to stop much my average time is 28 hours, so the car is running pretty much non stop.
