I wonder if the Heritage Grill would make that front end look just a little better?

Road racing is like China White Heroin, the buzz is stronger, the high lasts for hours, it's extremely addictive and they are all different.

No offence but GMMG did a much better job on the 4th Gen ZL-1 cars then you guys are doing. Just seems like you are slapping some parts on the car and making them as you go.

You know, I don't think I've ever seen someone start off a sentence with, "No offence [sic]," and then follow it up with any kind or constructive words...

I don't know about you, but putting a 427 into a 5th gen isn't "slapping" parts on the car. If you don't care for the look that Nickey is going for, that's your opinion. His stuff is a mix of old skool with a new skool flavor. Some like it, some don't. I like most of it but ALL OF IT is top notch work.

I can assure you that GMMG isn't doing it BETTER, just different.

Sometimes, I wish it was as easy as slapping on some parts.

I'm certain that they can speak for themselves, but the GIBB family has not only been directly involved, they have also been very happy with the 5th generation Camaros we are building bearing the GIBB Name and trademark.

I am a fan of some of GMMG Cars, as we purchased their mule prototype Camaro, ordered the one and only ZL1/Nickey Super car and had several other ZL1s.

I have not yet seen any of their offerings on the 5th gen Camaros?

Here are some pics of the Gibb Girls having fun at the shop.

I don't like how it says the dealer name in the side though.

It could be very possible that I am related to these folks since my dad's family is from Lomax IL which is just down the street from La Harpe... I have actually been to the local pool in La Harpe on many occasions
