I LOVE this picture. Reminds me of the great white from Finding Nemo as he's trying to be nice to Nemo and Dory without eating them. "Hello, my names Bruce, fish are friends, not food". And I hear you "being in the experience", I ripped out all of my insulation a while ago, I like that I can listen to everything. I think a cool little touch would be to take the little Camaro emblem from the bumper and paint it so its just white and black, or green and black.

I thought about getting the emblempros front emblem, but that would add weight I also removed the tail light covers and the license plate cover, but that was mostly for the local cops concern.
I have more plans for this year, but I'm stuck waiting for parts and time. Work has really picked up and it sounds like we will be on overtime most of the summer again.
BTW I'm looking for a roll cage fabricator in the Southwestern Wisconsin area, if you know a good welder I'd appreciate the info

I finally got rid of the "bronze" wheels that looked like a chocolate brown color IMHO. I scuffed the face of the wheels after I peeled the PlastiDip off of them and sprayed them with DupliColor stainless steel paint with 3 coats of clear. I taped the barrels off and left them the gloss black powder coat. I REALLY like how it looks now...
With my brothers v8 s10 and awd 1g Talon...it rained and the cars were filthy from being driven on the gravel roads, these things get driven
And a couple I edited with my phone
My brother and I took it on a 235 mile road trip a couple weekends ago and I think I averaged ~25mpg, but I will verify that next time I fill it up. Only problem was that after about 100 miles I threw the power steering belt and had to do the rest of the trip with manual steering only and 315/3 front tires.

And I almost forgot that I ditched the center console and cobra shift **** with a short stick and now have a Joe's Racing 7" billet handle with a Joe's lightweight shift **** and I freaking love it. I wish I would have done this years ago. When I pulled the center console I relocated the power outlet to the glove box.
Terrible pictures, but I'll get better ones when I install my new carpet
