Very nice.

It brings back memories of my very first car when I was 16. It was also an 84 Z28 L69 HO. Same color and everything. Damn I wish I still had that car.

But anyways it's good to see an older thirdgen all fixed up and looking good. There getting very rare.

Wow, nice Camaro, I love the 2 tone and the wheels look great, much better than the chrome wagon wheels that seems to be crossing over from the Uncle Ben losers and the Blunt smokin' thugs.

NICE!! From the look of that pic you'd think it's 1984 again

White letter tires are a must if you're running smaller wheels. Gives it that old-school muscle car look.

not sure what type of rims they are, but i have had a few people say they were american racing. i bought the car with the rims on it. and i'm running the same sizes all around (215/65-15). there was just one tire that had different style lettering on it when i got it, but they're all the same size.

and thanks for all the compliments guys.

i agree with you megaracer. But whats wrong with the 91-92 GFX Leave it the way it man. Looks good. Please dont lower the car. It looks so ghetto. Leave it stock the way it is. It has its own muscle looks. I think the early 3rd gen maros have the most muscle look out of all of em
