"Sinister" got a Halloween B-Day
Kinda Corny little neat Story here but I just had to share with you guys.
I had previously posted a few months back that my wife and I waited to order our Camaro on July 23rd. This is a very special day for me because it is the Birthday of my Younger Brother whom I tragically lost two years ago. We both grew up together loving Camaros and I know he would have loved the 5th Gens. Well On with the story....A few days after July 23rd my wife affectionately nicknamed our Camaro "Sinister" because she knew my brother would have really loved that name. We actually went ahead and ordered our personalized plate and ended up with "SIN1STR". Approaching the month of October, I jokingly told my wife that my brother wanted "SINISTER" to be built on "Halloween" since Halloween was absolutely his favorite Holiday. He loved Halloween so much that He even had a cat named "VooDoo" This morning at 10:15 I got a voicemail from my dealer telling me that I Finally had a VIN...........and the BEST NEWS!!!!!! She was built on 10/31 "Halloween Day" I just know my brother is looking down at me with a big smile on his face. __________________________________________________ ___________ 2010 Camaro 2SS/RS LS3 SIM W/ Blk Hockey and Hood Stripes & Blk Int -1000 July 23rd -Initial Order placed - Reeder Chevrolet Knoxville, TN -1100 July 23rd - Order Submitted by dealer (GM W/B Order # NMQQ3N) -2000 Sept 24th- Order Accepted by GM (TPW 10/26) -2500 Sept 30th- Order Preferenced -3000 Sept 30th- Order Accepted by Production Control -3100 Oct 13th - Order Available to Sequence -3300 Oct 13th- Scheduled for Production -3400 Oct 24th- Order Broadcast -3800 Oct 31st- “Sinister” is Alive on “HALLOWEEN” -------------------- 1969 Camaro SS396 375hp L-78 Unrestored "Survivor" M-21 W/ Factory 4:10 Cortez Silver w/ Black Hockey Stick Stripes. 2007 Camaro Nationals "Vintage Legend" Certification 2008 Chevy Vette Fest Chicago Winner of “Gold Spinner” Last edited by Mr. Brownstone; 11-02-2009 at 12:28 PM.
