looked nice just sitting there with the hood up.
I guess the troubles never stop... but its worth having a piece of soon to be history!

^^^ that is a BEAUTIFUL *** ^^^

I NEED to see more pics of that car!

OP: lots of LT1's are pigs, and theres more than a fair amount of hate for them. But if you get a good one (which I believe I have) you definitely fall in love with them. LS1's are a dime a dozen anyways lol get a pointy nosed LT1 bird!

That looks awesome. I have the SS spoiler on my LT1 car as well. Still trying to decide if I would like a gloss black Berger panel on a white car though.

The CME exhaust is really growing on me. Is that genuine CME or a knockoff?
