Camaros are lame though. Firebirds rule.

that is def one of the best cars on this site. Everything flows nicely, paint looks killer, and the rims and breaks complement the overall design. In other words that is one sweet ride

I defenitely think ditching the louvers was a good move. It really brings the car to a more modern appearance (cleaner, sleeker). The only thing I would like to see yet is smaller wheel gaps (2" lower would be killer!). Absolutely love it otherwise.

Its was a 305 TBI car. Now it is a 350 carbed car. Details in sig.

I had the car painted recently and it is all red now. Looks pretty good. I think I may get my windows tinted again also. Probably only 35% though. Cops are starting to be dicks about dark tint now.
