Default Finally got around to taking some post worthy pics

I finally took the time a few weeks ago at a local car show to break out the DSLR and grab some decent pics of the Camaro. Sad but these are the first real pics i've actually taken of the car since i've had it besides silly iphone pics LOL

Comments welcome

Thanks guys, I have colored versions of most of these as well. I'll try to post a few later tonight.

And yup these were taken inside a Gymnasium, it was a local car show for a Church benefit. There were a small number of "Elite" cars allowed to go inside the gym area.

Looks better in color! And all that power on stock bottom end? How many miles you have on that setup?

Haha thanks man, the car has an LS6 block, stock rods and pistons, arp hardware throughout. I've run the car for 2 full seasons on the turbo setup. Last season was at about the same boost level on a TC78, no turbo cam, and less meth. This season has all been running the t7875, Tick stage 2 turbo cam, and a lot more meth. I'm not sure exactly how many miles but its been boosted for about 8k miles or so. Hoping to finally strap it on the rollers here in a few weeks to get some official numbers

Thanks a ton for the compliments! I got lucky and found the car a few years ago, it was a completely unmolested low mileage SS that was nearly flawless. The car had only 40k on the clock then and just turned 50k this season.

The paint is all original on the car besides the front bumper which I repainted this spring. The rest of the car was completely color sanded and buffed out to get rid of the stock factory orange peel.

Sick and clean looking car OP. Did you fab up the hot/cold side yourself, or did you go with a Hurron Speed, etc. kit?

The turbo hotside is actually an old "real" PTK turbo kit I bought from a member here that he had never installed. The cold side is custom and fabbed by me so it's a little bit of both

Yes there are billet spacers/adapters on the rear. I hated the set in look of the rear and wanted a more "flush" look. Considering some smaller ones for the front as well.

Haha no worries, and thank you! The rears are 1.5". These are the style that bolt directly to your hub not just sandwich between the wheel and rotor.
