New SS

I picked up my 99 Camaro SS yesterday. It was owned previously by Joiner99SS. I love the car! Before this I had a mustang, and I'll never buy another ford as long as I live. The car is Pewter, A4, has QTP stainless LT's, TSP true duals, a whisper lid, smooth bellow, and msd wires. 54k miles on the clock. Car is beautiful, and I couldn't be happier. I will have pics later today.

Welcome to the club! I see fewer and fewer LS1 SS's around anymore so we're in the minority. The ole' SS still turns heads everywhere I go though........
