His name on here is nemesisvette. I put a public post up in his FS thread earlier today. Tires still haven't arrived. Tomorrow would be the fifth business day for shipping depending on what time it shipped. I'll contact a moderator tomorrow afternoon if they still haven't arrived by then.

Hell yea welcome man, great miles for the car any mods or plans?
Simple mods so far....TB bypass, heater hose on rear springs and a lot of TLC. Although it was garage kept it was ridiculously dirty even under the hood. I've got it spit shined now and I've mostly worked on the appearance (removed the stock decals and fixin' to put on the blackbird stripes in the next day or two). Strut tower brace for looks. It had an oil leak and trans leak when I bought it......turned out to be intake manifold leak and trans seal leak. Got those fixed and had the rad flushed too. The car has all the original paperwork as well as the original window sticker!! I'm even using the same mechanic that the original owner used! Turned out he was the GM service manager at the dealership where the car was bought back in 96. He now has his own shop. How cool is that?!! Next is the exhaust!
yea I have a 295/45 which is a little bit taller and im fine at stock height. Search that size here on tech. There is a page where I think the guy is lowered a little how low are you?
As for cars and coffe I wish I am out of town so won't be back in time. How often do they do it? I have only been one time like a year ago almost

@racerx: very nice, sucks about the problems right off the bat but at least you got them worked out and that's awesome about the mechanic. I wish I had my own shop... Any pics?
@burns: so im guessing they finally came in... Good deal.
@shane_ss: do you have the upper dash piece by chance? or the driver side air vent trim?

No actually they have not. I had to go out and purchase some others. Although, this morning I received this:
Sorry got tires dismounted and can ship Monday. Had some major things come up. I see you have already requested your money back? After 6 days? really?
And responded with this:
Hey man if you'd have given me some kind of correspondence I'd have been fine. I'm not an unreasonable person, but you ignored me. It's been longer than six days, and the forum shows the last time someone has logged on, which I check, to see if you've received my PMs. It's your call on what you'd like to do with the tires as far as sending me the tires or the money.

Thanks for all the compliments guys! The 305s are sooo much better! I can actually use my two step now. Not sure how log the rear end will hold out though. Before I would spin just rolling into boost in second. Now I can get traction slamming first.
