sweet Camaro man i'm sure you'll enjoy it...I saw your Monte yesterday over at Bill Stasek Chevy parked up front, also a sweet ride. As soon as I pulled in with my Impala they were razzing me to buy it haha. I've been going there for years their good guys. They said they already had a serious buyer interested in the car. I wanted to trade my stock hood and lights for the aftermark ones on the monte but since the car was basically already sold, they shot me down.

What hood and lights are those btw? How much did they charge you to paint the hood?

Cool I didn't know you were in the area? Where did they park it... and yeah the new buyer already has it home!

Hood is MPD1.com Eric is a great guy. I drove down and had the hood fitted by him to save on shipping. Stasek painted it I think around $600. Lights are DEPO, search ebay... black DEPO monte carlo lights or something.

I practiced some more on the camaro, night and day better than i was yesterday. Realized i was dumping the clutch way too early.
