Default Just got a Z28

Hey guys!

It's about time I got a chevy lol.

I've had mustangs, hondas, lifted trucks, got a Dakota RT now, among the other cars.

Anyways I picked this up for dirt cheap.

Runs perfect, has K&N intake and exhaust so far. Plans are. Longtubes, new wheels, and a stall for now

Heres a couple pics.

Default nice steal

i've seen those tips at autozone take those things off. otherwise this could be a very clean car. The rims aren't TOO bad but they're still ugly as sin. I've got some c6's if you want to buy them.
