I just snapped these yesterday, and had them developed. Sadly, I just sold my red TA after having it for 13 years. My first car, and now she's gone. But, the buyer lives just a few blocks away, and is the type of person who will look after it.

Anyway, i thought some of you might be interested in these. Please ignore the shoddy web page work as I just put it up really fast. I will be redeveloping my site soon, so this will have to do for now

Those are great looking cars...Why did you have to sell the T/A?!?! I would K.O. if I had to sell my car.....especially if it was my first car. (sets up a fort around her Camaro and protects it)

The T\A is gorgeous, I really hope the guy you sold it to will look after it.....if he doesn't, you call me, I'll be there in an hour.

I like the 4th gen effect you have on the camaro, where the whole upper half is black, looks really good. Nice cars!

The paint on that camaro is baaaddd. I have never seen that on a third gen before and it looks grrrrreaat.

Looks good... I think I like the paint theme on the Camaro, but I don't like the rims. The TA is awesome :hail:

Shane? Wassup man? Wow, another old, old timer from the past. Good to see your still around.

makes me sad you had to sell the T/A bc it was ur first car ... the day i bought my GTA i told my mom i wasn't selling it, bc it was my first car, and i totally <3'd it - and i hope i never have to =/

Tom! old pal. It has definitely been a very long time. I'm hoping to frequent the boards more. I've got classes starting again right away, but hopefully I'll still have time to make it around here. I'm getting ready to start on the T-56 for my Z. I just ordered that beautiful adjustable torque arm/crossmember combo from Spohn. Can't wait to see that!

Congrats on getting your car in GM High Tech. I'd S U R E like to get my car in there some day. Maybe I can convince (and by that I mean bribe) John Hunkins to fly into Winnipeg some weekend to do some features on some of the local cars. I'm sure he would not be dissapointed.

MetalliCamaroRS. - I don't really like those wheels either. At the time I got them, they were one of the very few wheels available for our cars. I'm looking into getting some ROH ZS wheels, but I'm also starting to bend towards the Ronal firehawk rims lately.

Silver87S.C. - Thanks for the offer to take care of business for me if the guy who bought my T/A thrashes it. I think it should be pretty safe though. I shopped around for the right buyer probably more than they shopped around for the right car!! I turned down a few offers from people I thought would not give the car the proper care it deserves.

I would have loved to have kept it, but right now I don't have the space for it, and it would probably just rott away in my driveway if I kept it. At least now it has gone to a good home where I know it will be looked after. Probably one of those deals where I'll be kicking myself, with both feet, later on down the road though (sigh).

Thanks for the compliments people. It's good to hear from you again Tom.

What year is was your trans am? I sold my 81 Trans Am last year....I miss the throaty V8 with true dual flowmaster exhaust.

i like the camaro's paint, but not the wheels. i would go with some 17" white ZR1's

Hey,

My T/A is/was a 79 with the 403 ci Oldsmobile engine. I cut out the cutouts on the shaker hood, to get more air into the engine. After doing that (the rest of the motor is completely stock) I was able to trample factory 5.0's and the best part is the car now makes an incredible sound when you give it full throttle. I miss that sound!

Speaking of wheels, here is what I narrowing it down to. I thinking either ROH ZS with the spokes painted white, or 17" 4th gen T/A ram air wheels (96-97) painted white, or C5 vette wheels (the earliest kind found on the 97's, same as omnipotent's car) painted white of course. Any comments, or other ideas?

-omnipotent's wheels = No, they look like plastic

-ROH ZS wheels = nice

-4th gen T/A wheels = are they like the WS6 wheels

Shaneo

Yep, they are the WS6 wheels. 5 spokes, and they are 17" X 9" size. I don't have a pic to show you, but they came on the 96 Ram Air WS6 T/a's and also on the 97 with a high gloss polish available. They were probably available on other years as well, but I know for sure they were available on 96 and 97 WS6 optioned T/A's

Oh wait, here is a pic

get the ROh or the T/A wheels, but painted white. You will need adaptors or a 4th gen rear end swap to get the T/A wheels to fit.

SWEET!!!!

If it were me, I would have sold the Camaro and kept the T/A.

I can't sell my first car. I would have done it a long time ago, but I love it too much even though its a six

I will have another one someday with an eight hopefully next summer I would be able to afford another one, hopefully...

I like our scheme on the Camaro, but I am not a fan of white, but the WS6 wheels would look sweet on there, I would leave them the stock color though.

But hey, your car, your money. As long as you like it.

I would have rather invested my money into that Trans Am
