Other way around bro.. I help pat put his Z28 hood on to replace the SS hood he had on there and the SS hood was heavier.

RSo...i know i talk alot about sellin my car, but im not sure what to do anymore. I bought my car car completly stock, so everything that i have done to it is like a reflection of myself. That car is "my car" and i love it. I made it what it is and it is one of a kind as far as mods and the way ot looks. Theroe are still things i would like to do to it like a big motor and some berger racing stripes, the list gos on and on. Who really knows what i will end up doing with it or to it. But in the future i would still like to get a firebird of somekind or an 06 GTO. Im just posting this cuz its whats on my mind and not a concrete plan. anyway thanls for reading guys;-)

So many toys, so little money...I'd like a nice 68 or 70 chevelle w/ a BB or lsx but, I have put lots of $$$ into my ss as well, seems like a waste to sell for a loss but everytime I see an old school it makes me think twice!!
