Found an old pic...

... of my first f-body!

Don't ask me what I was thinking with the louvers. Although, the combination of those and the 5% side window tint did make for a very private driving experience.

I miss it now, even though it was a hunk of crap. lol

Oh, and I ALWAYS parked on the sidewalk.

I hear you! My first Camaro was a '91 RS, and was basically the very definition of a base model Camaro. It had been terribly abused and the poor V6 was so ragged out a 4 cylinder intimidated it. I ended up losing the car in an accident, and for some strange reason I miss it to this day.

Glad to see you kept with the F-Body though, I'm on my fifth one including my current project.

Not being sarcastic, I just assumed somebody would chime in with "nice parking job!".

Sorry we all can't live up to your standards, GokuZ06Roc. Though I find it interesting that your post actually added to the gayness of the thread, thus making you a part of said gayness.

Or perhaps that was your intention?

Oh man, Faded, you have no idea how many times I've been called gay or worse for being a Morrissey fan. I suppose I've always been a bit eccentric....in fact, I actually kinda liked the louvers on your car.

Hmm, maybe I shouldn't have admitted that.
