If I'm correct we're referring to the post "My Car... " by m3baller in which I said that I had never see those wheels in silver before... they were always gold. I love those wheels in silver, just something about em. What's with the big orange blob behind the car? I feel honored. No one has ever directly addressed me in a thread before... Then again, it could just be all the beer I just had. I know that's not your car 1986CamaroSC... how come the excited post about the wheels?

Hey, it should turn out to be a nice car... Don't sweat the 2.late motor. If you wanna stay with small cubes then when the 2.late goes you could drop in a buick turbocharged 3.8. They've only got 231 cubes, and they push around 230 horsepower and 300 ft/lbs that's not too damn bad considering they weigh less than an LO3, make more hp, and get about 32mpg on the highway!!! Can't wait to see your car painted!!! I was considering Hugger Orange for mine later this summer, but I dunno. I don't want to have to shoot the inside of the doors and everything. I may just go white again, but this time with some pearl mixed in.

Um, no. When I came back to VA Tech after winter break I didn't bring any photos or my camera. I am going back to my parent's house this weekend so maybe I can get some then. Better yet, I'll see if my friend will let me borrow his digital camera so I can get some new pics this week... Either way you're gonna have to wait until Sunday night probably for me to get them and post them. I'm kinda ashamed of how it looks at this point. The people that owned it before me had the top and rear repainted about 3 years ago due to some acid rain damage, but it was painted with laquer and has already begun to crack and just look bad in general. My plans for it this summer are 3.42 w/ posi, Hooker SUper Comp. headers w/ catco free flow cat, Custom PROM burning, Spohn LCAs and LCA relocaters, Spohn subframe connectors, and paint. If I can get half of that done then I will be happy. Stuff like this always takes longer than expected. What about you? What do you have done so far and what are you planning?
