Well said... Coming from the Vette world, there was really just the moded crowd and non modded crowd, then the way over the top crowd.

I had 2 2002 Z06 cars... one just headers and one cam, headers, pulley etc etc... really fun and cool cars, but there was no way to achieve the retro look for that body style imho...

With the 5th gen Camaro body style it seems that it makes for a great canvas for building the perfect old school/new school car. I know my goal is to achieve this.

1JEWLDSSRS, you have definitely set the bar for me personally and probably allot of others. Theres a fine line between overdone and just right.. You hit the nail on the head in my opinion. Nice ride!

Thank you sir very much! I truly appreciate your kind compliments! It has been fun to get done what I never thought I'd get to. Everyone has a "dream car" they would like to have, and an awesome looking, and running "modern" muscle car with a little race car and "old school" vib to it was what I wanted to achieve. Guess I got it!! lol. I'll never forget what my tuner/builder said to me the first time I had my Camaro in his shop for the LT install and tune, he told me that my Camaro was the best looking and most well thought out and very tastefully modded Camaro inside and out he has ever had in his shop! That meant a lot to me, so I just had to keep that spirit in mind from that day on. Most of his cars are there to be built for the track, 1/4 mile cars. Thank you guys so much! And I'm thankful to be a part of this cool family of Camaro lovers, and to be an inspiration for you guys. Never dreamed of all that!!

lol that's for sure!!

I was reading that one since it got started, and boy o boy did it get way outta hand quickly!! I keep going back for the entertainment. I used to have a boosted Mustang, and I know how all that stuff works because back then on my Eaton M112 we were doing some mods to our actuators to make things work better. But NOT what that one fella was talking about.
