Default Before & After

I was going through and organizing some pictures and started looking at the difference in the car. Just wanted to share the difference it's gone through over the years


This is the actual ad that made me go buy the car:

I remember meeting you one night in Lees Summit off of 291 when your car looked like that. Doubtful you remember me but I was driving a gray 3rd gen trans am at the time.

Kinda cool to see that picture after all these years.

No, I don't remember having my car out in Lee Summit when it looked like that, but I'm sure I did once or twice

Very nice Fade. I remember asking you a couple questions back in the day before I did my swap. Hard to imagine back then I would've went from a stock little V6 to my current heads/cam LS1. Clean swap.

Major transformation. I don't like the ground effects at all but the 3.8 to LS1 ,stock hood to new hood/wheels are major!

Yeah I remember those wheels in the picture I quoted. I loved them. This was a LONG time ago. Back in the mofba.com and .org days so it was quite a while..
