Camaro21's Build:

On September 13, 2009 my car "Rubye" (which I named after my Grandmother that raised me and just turned 96 years old on Sept. 21st) was brought home. I bought her off of the lot as a 2SS/RS, black with cyber grey rally stripes. Since then, I have spent alot of time and effort on her upgrades making her more to match my personality. Now I can truly say i am pleased with the way she has transformed. I have not only upgraded her looks, but her power as well. Some may like it and some may not, but as most of you have told me, it is my car and that's all that matters..

Today I have over 65,000 miles on her and she is still going strong. I have attended MTI Funfest I & II and Camaro5Fest I & II.

Below are a list of upgrades that have been done..

Nice ride and nice house......

If "Rubey" had her own page on facebook, I'd be a fan. I'm already a fan in person. "Karr" is jealous but I keep her in check. Great job Keith, And Congrats!!

ponycrusher21 09-27-2010 05:32 PM

Honestly, probably one of the nicest Camaros I've seen on here. Deff. up there.

One thing I have to ask though....

Any more pictures? ;)

Ivan @ Southwest Speed 09-27-2010 06:43 PM

Nice stripes!!!! ;).

Congrats sir.

Ivan @ Southwest Speed.

Dalefj 09-27-2010 07:53 PM

Looks great :thumbup: Im a sucker for the black and white paint job

I think if you changed the bowtie on the back to white though it would give it a nice pop.

Also great rims

mlee 09-28-2010 12:09 AM

Awesome.... contrats on COTW... well deserved...:clap:


Now bring it on down to the TX Camaro Nationals next month....

ChevyCamaroZL1 09-28-2010 03:26 AM
