Took the bird to the park...brought a buddy too.

Went to the park today w/ a friend of mine and we got A LOT of pics of our cars... 126 to be exact

Check them out if you're bored and have a lot of time.

Btw, I have a burnout clip, but need to find some place to upload it (3.3 meg).... or if anyone can figure out how to compress the .mov anymore..

The rollbar was fabbed by some company -- i can't remember the name/addy, so I'll have to get it tomorrow.
The Sparco seat is fiberglass...however, I believe for around $1200 or so you can get it in carbon fiber, compared to the $600 fiberglass... Unless you need every single pound you can save, go w/ the regular fiberglass shell. I plan on replacing the passenger seat (previous owner put it in to save a few lbs over stock as it was an auto-x car) once i get enough money for the new seat and 2 new harnesses (current one is old and needs replacing).

Wow, those wheels are fantastic. They look expensive. I love the background. I hope you don't mind if I use the backgrounds for my drawings.

SMURFN' Z28 gets a cookie


Besides a horrible turning radius simply cuz its an f-body (man I love my jeep for tight turns ) the thing handles amazing The car is lowered quite a bit, so I have to watch out for potholes/speed bumps - - theres about 3" of clearance from the bottom of the Y-pipe...but with the stiff front suspension I almost never bottom out (did once going a little too fast over a steep bump and going too fast ofer RR tracks sometimes).

All I know about the wheels is that they are by CCW (complete custom wheels). I really couldnt find any information on their site or anywhere else on the web about which model/$ specifically so I really can't give any help there.

Im going to try and go thru the collection within the next day or so and take out all of my favorites and possibly upload them in 1024x768 format.

Thanks for the comments...and keep the questions coming!

I like it when people take pictures of their cars at a nice place. I am tired of seeing pictures of nice cars next to a crack house, or something like that.

Hey Brian, I am from Sterling Heights. Why haven't you been to any local shows this summer? If you want to join in some of the fun you can go to www.motownmuscle.com and most of us are in there... or you can go to the Michigan forum at www.camaroz28.com. It would be nice to meet up with you and your car next summer. Maybe we can get some good pics at River Bends.

BTW- I seenthe X pics and they are awesome. She should be in ****
