heavenSSoldier – 2010 Camaro 2SS

Build thread for heavenSSoldier – 2010 Camaro 2SS A6

Better late than never…this build begins with my love for Camaros. My first car was a 1991 Camaro V8 305 and unfortunately I sold it to my uncle when I joined the Navy right after 9/11, September 22, 2001 to be exact. After a few years I wanted it back but the timing was never right so my uncle kept the car and started to build it his own way. In 2010 I started eyeing the new Camaro and feel in love with it. Duty called and I was deployed to Afghanistan for a year. Every chance I got I would log onto the computer, talk to the family and search for the beautiful Camaro.

Upon my return from deployment my wife surprised me…she knew that I wanted a Camaro so without me asking her she took me on a field trip straight to the dealership. That’s where I found the second love of my life a 2010 Black Camaro 2 SS. Without a doubt I knew she was the one, love at first sight. The day was May 31, 2011 in San Antonio, Texas when she came home with me. She’s been with me since and the bond has never been stronger.

Below are the mods I have done and what I plan to do…


Appearance Mods:
VIS Racing AMS Carbon Fiber Hood
