It get's hot in Vegas, real HOT!!!

Such a sexxxy ass car needs to stay cool so I fixed the A/C. How? Well I replaced every single component. That involved replacing the condenser, compressor, evaporator core and all 3 lines!!! While I was at it I upgraded to a dual row radiator, for only $68! The rest was only $350!!! How much does a Camaro compressor even cost, $326!!! One fun part was removing the entire dash and half of the engine wiring harness... I figured all this out by myself and charged it myself. Did it work? See pic below, yup, mid 30 degree temps just like my real Camaro

I have been loving all the positive comments, I'm glad everybody likes it so much!!! I've included a couple more glamour shot's I took the other day

All this time and money wasted should've been put into getting a real Camaro from the dealership.

I think he claims to have one that he is waiting to put supercharger on according to the original post.

For the six grand he spent he could have found a first gen SHO!

Well if he does have one. Then that money he wasted on doing that could have been put towards that supercharger.

People waste money all the time in all sorts of fashion. There's a wealthy guy around here named bob mungle has more money than he can spend and a house you wouldn't believe. This guy can't drive.. Notoriously known for being a poor racer. Has a new toy at the drag strip every 2-3 months with a sick ass paint job and a golf cart to match.

I still find time to work on my baby ;)

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!! for all the positive words Who knew I would have such a warm reception

At this point I have a DVD touch screen with blue tooth audio, phone and back up camera. I recently added a remote start/keyless entry system. There's something pretty awesome seeing a 23 yr old car start itself with glowing red headlights. Gauges? How about 6 cool LED gauges. No need to actually keep an eye on my Ford Motor, being perfect and all with 234,000 miles

I am the supposed LEDgod So I might need to add a few. But my old front brakes sucked!!! They were so bad I couldn't even mount my lights on them due to rust. So why not upgrade, what's money anyway It had measly 10" rotors, 10's!!! Upgrade to 2007 Taurus calipers and 12" rotors. Check out the comparison below. Oh, I made my own dust shields while I was at it. Why wouldn't I just paint the calipers body color too

They turned out awesome!!! And my lights, wellllll I am a god after all

Cheers to everyone and keep all the positive words coming
