HOW DOES SHE LOOK????

TAKE A LOOK AT MY WEB PAGE GUYS. IF I DID IT RIGHT YOU SHOULD SEE 3 PICS OF MY 86 THIRD GEN. LET ME KNOW HOW SHE LOOKS TO YOU. I HAVE A ASCD TURBO Z BEING PAINTED AS I WRITE. ALSO I AM LOOKING FOR A T TOP BAG. EMAIL ME IF YOU GOT ONE FOR SALE. GOOD CONDITION ONLY. ALSO MY NEIGHBOOR WANTS TO SELL ME A 91 RS MAROON, NO TEE FOR $700.00 BODY HAS MINOR RUST AND IS PAINTED THIS DEEP MAROON OR DK. RED WITH MATCHING CLOTH INTERIOR, NEEDS NEW WINDSHIELD AND HAS NO RADIO. I THINK IF I PAINT IT, CHANGE THE WHEELS AND TIRES AND PUT SOME SOUNDS IT IT SHE WOULD BE DECENT. I WOULD BE DOING THE CAMARO WORLD A FAVOR BECAUSE IF MY NEIGHBOOR KEEPS IT IT IS GOINGTO GO TO HELL. DID I MENTION IT IS A 5.7TPI IN GOOD CONDITION? GIVE ME YOUR OPINIONS?

Car looks like it's in great shape for an 86. You make me wish I had the T tops.

THANKS GUYS, I BOUGHT THIS BABY FOR $200 FROM A GUY THAT WAS GOING TO TAKE HER TO THE JUNK YARD THE NEXY DAY. HAVING OWNED A '69 PACE CAR WHILE IN COLLEGE IN THE '70'S I FELT IT WAS MY DUTY TO SAVE THIS CAR. $5000.00 LATER (WITH ANOTHER $3000.00 PLANNED) AND A BUNCH OF DIRTY LOOKS FROM MY WIFE EVERY TIME I BUY SOMETHING NEW, HERE SHE IS. AND YES MOOKIE, I KNOW THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A '86 SS. THAT WAS A TRIBUTE TO MY '69 THAT GOT STOLEN AND BESIDES IT SCARES THE SH** OUT OF THOSE MUSTANG PEOPLE. I WILL HAVE MY NEW ASCD TURBO HOOD ON IN 2 WEEKS. I CAN'T WAIT. I ALSO HAVE MY NEIGHBOOR SELLING ME HIS'91 RS FOR $500.00. I CAN'T BELIEVE THEDEALS I BEEN GETTING LATELY. MUST BE CLEAN LIVING.

Just a bit of advice... I didn't have any problems with viewing the site with screen resolution of 1280x1024 on a high speed connection, but for the people with smaller monitors and slower speed connections, you might want to shrink your images to 800x600 or even 640x480. I still had to scroll left to right even at my high resolution.

i think it is nice, but i prefer the 69 ss pace car And you say you are buying your neighbor's 91rs for 500 bucks? if it can be fixed, sounds like a good deal, but did you also say it was a 5.7 tpi? Or are you talking about your "ss"? Cause i don't think there is such a thing as a rs with a stock 5.7. Is it not stock?

Ever consider lowering it & adding some GTA
wheels?

I think black or silver would look better
instead of gold (to lazy to look for them
tho)
Looks pretty sharp as it is though.

Thanks sheet,, but it's 86nite's car & a paint shop edit,, my camaro is a bit more of a heap of ,,,, compared to his(actually a big heap of ,,,,).
Personally (opinion) Iv'e alyways thought the GTA wheels were the best factory wheels ever made and could look good on d@mn near anything,,,, just my opinion tho,,they do look good on a camaro though
