(the 2nd best looking is still hrpii... even if it still needs rear louvers... and the best is the new bumblebee one on C5s website).

The only reason its crazy to see so many 5th gens is you have to have a car older than 1972 to be at GGs... There were only about 2 mustangs inc. a boss 302 at the Ford booth. GMPP had a camaro verte too and I loved the wheels (black/chrome).

There was a 1968 Camaro with a 2010 camaro LS3 + an entire 2010 camaro interior... that was SWEET, and no it was NOT just a 68 camaro dropped on a '10 chassis... full swaps...

Maybe I'll get around to posting some pics of the camaros...

Oh yeah, and if anyone wants 15% + A free tshirt on orders over $150 from Hotchkis, I got some coupon codes. Probably can find them on google too, but still.... Got a chance to see the parts in person which was nice. I think I'm leaning towards hotchkis over pedders of pfadt, even though it seems like the latter are what most guys are running... may go pfadt for the engine mounts though, and I would definately go with pfadt for the subframe bushings if I could run autocross with solid metal ones (unfortunately not allowed without going to pro class... urgh??)

Cheers!
Can you please PM me with that coupon code?

I am planning on going to the Indy meet on Saturday, but if it looks like rain, I might skip it and come give you a hand.

You are not allowed to skip out, Jason already quit, don't be like Jason.

Started out red, then became red and black, then became black with green flake. It wasn't a factory spyder, it was an aftermarket convertible. It was a 93.

I really do love the 3000GTs... Have pics of yours anywhere? If you ever need any spare parts, I think I still have a few laying around, but I sold a bunch on ebay and threw others out.

I'm jealous though- I VR4 spyder is very very rare... worth more than your 2SS, so I'm surprised you have then nerve to drive it as a DD! AWS and AWD does fairly decent though!

Glad to see some other 3kgt fans out there!

2010 Camaro SS modified extensively. I stretched the body to make it a 4 door, but I swapped in the 3.6L DI V6 for fuel economy. Then I picked up a corvette body around the V8. I also swapped the body for a C2 Z28. (In short I traded it for three cars, a Corvette Z06r, a C2 Camaro Z28, and a Cadillac CTS Summer Performance package 3.6L DI with Aisin 6spd.)

I think Jason might be back in if he gets all the work finished up by Friday. I'm helping him tomorrow. I'm sure he'd welcome help from anyone else - well except that guy with the big hammer.

So not only is he quitting, now he is bitching about being a quitter.

No matter what you do, other then going to Indy, will please us.

As my brother said, Indy is much closer then Oshawa. In other news he wont be joining us, so no worries about any astrological events.

I will help get the knife out of your back, but nobody can save us from the bus he is trying to throw us under.

That's why you have the pedal to the right.
