Tumblrws6, I'm pretty sure I saw your flamed TA here in Little Rock AR with a woman driving it a couple days ago. Am I crazy or did you sell it to someone around here?

yeah i sold it a while back. Been trying to track it down to buy it back lol
...the guy wanted an avalanche and wanted to sell it back to me for like $18k
When i sold it in 08 it had nearly 120k miles and some issues...hence why i sold it. I got a pretty penny, but i for sure didnt screw anyone.
Yeah it was clean as hell but as the prev owner...no where near $18k
I think it would be cool to own again and make it a track queen...but not for that. Id rather buy a low miles clean black ta ws6 and paint it again.

I kind of like the red ring around the rims, but it looks like it might be chipping away, which I don't like.

I'll be getting a new paint job soon but, unfortunately, I think my interior color keeps me from getting anything to 'colorful'. I have a taupe/grey interior but I think a grey that matches the interior would be nice. Something like a charcoal grey should be close.

I want a set of C6 Z06 DD replicas with gunmetal finish but the gunmetal grey won't match a charcoal grey. Will painted rims hold up well over time?

Im considering a custom paint job on my Camaro. Actually changing the color all together. I would like to ask the guys that have a question...

Did you notify the state? Im just wondering if a cop runs your plate and it comes back to a Blue car that is now Green doesnt that throw up a red flag?

Not that Ive got anything to hide but I dont want to be pulled over just to see why my tag comes back to a different color car.

I appreciate any insight you have!
