Default Another one from NC checkin in...
After selling my HMS Camaro(Hendrick Motorsports Special Edition), I've been going crazy not having a F-Body. After years of Camaros, I decided on a Trans Am this time, and this one is my first LS-1. I already love it over the LT-1.

So far the mods are very mild.......tint, exhaust, STB. The rims are HP Evo, 18x9.5" with 245/40/18 tires. Next I am looking for a Ram Air hood of some sort. Then INTO the motor.......

Default Thanks!
What's up Darren??............no kidding, it's been awhile. PM me and I'll give you my new email address.

I've got a factory WS6 hood on and got the front end/hood repainted. The nose had a few rock chips, so I decided to paint the front end along with the hood. I'll try to post some pics this weekend. I currently have the rear torn apart replacing the pinion seal.

I just wondered what you might be up to the other day. I figured you had probably acquired another car by now.

PM sent.
