Spotted 98BlownZ28 last night in Glendale. He threw me a rev and turned left. In his moms minivan. So, this post is because he spotted me.

Did it have exhaust tips that looked similar to the rectangular Z28 tips on the muffler?

Oh well, doesn't matter I guess. It sounds like the SS I sold. I still talk to the guy and he just got the 10 spokes cause he liked them better after he saw them on my SS.

Only other way to tell I think, is if you noticed the SS badges were trailblazer SS badges instead of the originals. That or if he took off awkwardly from a stop(he's still learning to drive stick).

I sold it to him, about 4 months ago. He just seems to have problems starting and stopping. I thought I was gonna have problems with learning stick when I first tried, but within a couple days it was just second nature like for most I assume.

It's also his first car. He's taken really good care of it, keeps in contact and I help him out show him how to do small stuff for the car. Showed him how to change the oil/filter, regrease the pulley to stop squeaking, a/c refresh. Just little things so he knows how to do them in the future. He's only like 1 or 2 years younger than me I think.

Last time he was at my house I told'em to pull the car into the driveway and you could hear him almost stalling out while trying to take off to make a uturn. Other than that he has everything down pretty good though.

Here's a picture of the car after I took off the godawful 22' rims the previous owner had on the car.

I saw a white convertible SS with a black Berger panel this morning on Glenoaks and Osborne in Pacoima. I think it had black rims.

slim chance, but saw a daily driven CETA, had trouble starting, DRL was out, pretty dirty, and sounded like a 6M. I assume it was a mom and her two daughters in it. cool because you never see them, but sad because it wasn't in great shape.
