Its a good looking car Brandon. I think you will miss it more than you think, especially if you are moving into a truck. Trucks should be secondary vehicles

Lookin good B. I know the feeling of wanting to sell it, but every time I think about it I just realize how much I'd miss her. I'd still sell if the price was right.

We need to bolt some slicks on it and take it to the track.

As I said before, if you are totally getting out of the racing thing, sell it. If you still want to go fast, why sell it? You have a good foundation. Put a quieter exhaust on it and keep it. Later on, throw heads/intake on it. Throw a bottle on it when you get bored with that. When you are bored with that, bring it by and I'll built you a turbo kit. Can you see the evolution of you car here? Someday, it will run in the 8's.

thank you. Brandon just put a 12 bolt in it or anything WITHOUT A SPOOL and some exhaust and quit being a weiner.

I wish I had never sold my car

Nice car, did you have to use the one gig memory chip to take that many dam photos? Seriously though, don't sell it, NEVER SELL IT. It will come back to bite you in the ****. I sold my vette and kicked myself for 2 years until I bought my 2000 SS new.

Only thing I would recommend is to paint your calipers. Looks killer though, definitely a beautiful car.
