New 'kid' from Wis. Hey everyone, I have recently been lurking around the site a lot, but this is my first post. Im from a tiny town in good ol' wisconsin, pretty much sick of winter. I purchased my first LS1 powered F-body this august, and love it. I have always been obsessed with birds, because I grew up hearing stories about my dad and his 76 455-4speed =) and when I was 15 used some saved up money to buy a 76 project car to work on. Thats a slow process, so when I turned 16 last year and got a job (loading semi's) I found a deal on a 94 T/A so I jumped on it. Well then this past August when the 94 had to be in the shop for a while I started lookin around and found my 2000 (came from NY), best thing I ever did.. just need to sell the 94 now so I can do some more work on the 2000 
I'll post some pics shortly, sorry for writing so much lol.

Nice car... I have a red 01 WS6 that looks just like it, but I took my Torque Thrust 2s off and put on black torque thrust Ms(just did it tonight) and it looks great.I like that 76 too, I got really into birds and now have a 72 and a 68 firebird 400 to go with my WS6. They are adictive...not that its a bad thing

Nice car man. I love the TT's on WS6's. I don't recognize the town...how close are you to Madison? That's where I am. There is a few other ws6's in town, maybe we could all meet up some time.

I am about 5 hours away sadly 
Have you ever heard of the city of Eau Claire? thats about the biggest city that i live close to. But maybe somtime this summer me and my gf could venture down there for a weekend so some of us could meet up. I've been in madison a few times now we won the Division 7 state football championship this year, and last year we got 2nd (playing at Camp Randall was pretty awesome lol I was in the Madison paper hitting SW's qb this year. Our bball team should go for the 3rd season in a row but it will be too early to take the T/A im sure. btw you have an amazing car swoarz.

Ive been up past there to Shell Lake a couple of times. Gotta be cold as hell there, we are at -30 with the wind. The summer is coming sometime(thats what I have to tell myself everyday) so the T-tops can come off and hit the countryside for a cruise.
Congrats on the sweet ride and let the spending begin! ... as already noted

Yeah its arond -40 today with wind chill, got us a day off of school so its all good.
Yeah its only about a half hour to eau claire from my house so I go there a lot, I have seen a few F-Bodys around in the summer, but usually just v-6 mustangs
last year me and my bro in law were cruisen in my 94(bone stock) and a nice 98-02 fbird WOT passed us, of course I tried to race knowing I'd get smoked but it was still fun. Wish it had been a month later when I had the 00' though 
thanks everyone for the welcomes and comments on the car
