Default my intro

hey everyone, not too too new to the site but i never did do an intro and i got an email from the admin about making an intro so here it goes. so ive got a full bolt-on '96 z28 still waiting to go back on the road this year, had just gotten my tranny rebuilt at t56rebuilds.com but the shipping company busted it to hell in transit so looks like my car wont be on the road til august at this rate.. got nothing but good words for t56rebuilds tho, they've ben more than helpful.. but in all honesty i've gotten pretty dis-enchanted with owning a camaro, this is my 3rd year with my '96, had an '85 z28 for a couple of years and a real nice '87 monte a few years back but im just not sure if i should be spending as much money as i do on cars at this point in my life. but who knows, as soon as i get behind the wheel again im sure that will all go out the window. but as of now i have a growing list of parts and mods for the car since its off the road, got a new 5.0 shifter &mba ***, new clutch disk & tob for my centerforce, new aluminum flywheel, and a new electric cut out fo rmy borla. im getting ready for a cam swap, so far i have a new opti and LT4 timming chain, gonna order the cam and new springs next week or so. and if i end up keeping it il add a nitrous system after that..then wait for my 10bolt to crap out lol and more mods to come most likley. i was a member of another internet forum for quite some time, but i just got sick of all the drama and it almost seemed like there was 'clicks' on the site..just lost interest with it, hope theres no hard feelings there but hey w/e so you'l be seeing more of me when im around, im now fishing for a living so im out at sea most of the time. but i'd love to go for a cruise or a meet some time this summer, im from cape cod mass but im often in between here and sunapee NH, any regulars from epping on here? im also gonna hit the track for sure this summer see how i do. i guess that sums it up pretty good,
cya on the road

Hey man, welcome. Sorry about the transmission thats bad luck. Im in the north east too, Albany NY. I'll be back there in a month. About spending money on cars, I guess priorities change as we get older. But it is certianly nice to have a bad *** car to escape the crap the world throws at us. Good luck with your ride I hope you keep it around.
