Default New Girl

Hello LS1 Tech! I am in the Air Force and am currently deployed.
I just bought a 2002 T/A WS6 (love at first site!) so I am new to the f-body world. (I was formerly a farm kid so all I thought existed were big trucks!)

I do have pics, i dont think i can post then for a while because of the computers i am using, but i'll see if i can work around that.

I actually am still a resident of Rochester IL (right out side of Springfield). I am just stationed in North Carolina (actually I would call it more like Kuwait/Iraq)

So are you in NC or Iraq? I have a friend going to UNC. I don't know if that is close to you, but he rarely sees F-bodies and it would be nice if he could meet up with some f body people.

Welcome

Josh

Welcome to the group!

I'm a fellow Airman, there's lots of us on here. Are you a pilot? Bet you can't wait to hop back in the seat of your new WS6.
