My 83' Electron Blue Sport Coupe

Its really nothing special so far but its fun for a college kid on a budget. Let me know what you guys think it needs. Oh..and yes that is a stock 6-cyliner exhaust pipe, it has headers though.

the wheels are cheapie cragar chromed steel wheels. 17x9 (5.0 bs if i rememer right)with 275/40/17 falken 512's. Yeh anyways they actual wheels were less than 100 a piece...heavy as hell though. I only bought them cuz i got a great deal on the tires through a friend.

the exhaust pipe is just a trick to the eyes in the picture...its on the left. I will get new rims eventually but for now these look decent enough, need to put on the centercaps though.

camaros look funny without spoilers to me. Birds to too, but to a lesser extent. I think adding the spoiler will make it a pretty decent college student f-body. congrats
