Well i was originally planning on painting my car white, but one of my friends knows a guy and he said he has enough red paint left over from a previous car to paint mine. The color is Bright Red and i am only paying him for clear coat and labor if he accepts the money. So now i NEED new rims since i have the RS wheels and red rims would looks terrible. So any ideas on rims? 15,16,17's?

After the car gets painted (this week) the car will be towed to my engine builder to put the engine in and he said he could make a good exhaust system for the car real cheap. So total I am only spending $250 max. Pretty cool. I'll post pics when its all done. Probably looking at the first week of March. I cant wait.

 

Yeah, and after riding in my friends new Mystic Cobra, I think i am going for cornering and handling too. You know, an all around car. So i'll probably consider going to a bigger rim size too.

 

Haven't I always said straight line isn't the only thing thats fun? :lala:

(I'm just always a smartass aren't I?)

 

Yeah, you've said it before. I blame my decision on peer pressure!!

Well what rims should I go with. I like the silver SS rims so far....

 

when in the hell did u get a caprice...and i got mine out again..insured now and everything...almost got a ticket b/c the muffler fell off again.. i think i got it on there good and solid now though.

 

Yeah, i bought the caprice about 2 weeks ago. I havent even driven it yet due to somewhat nice weather. Yeah, and i paid $50 for it and it runs!!! So maybe we can race our beaters for fun! lol


the muffler fell off again!! that blows. for the rest of you guys heres the story : we almost got killed because of this muffler. We were driving on a busy road when we hear this scaping sound and me and Allen got out and the muffler was just hanging on the ground. So here we are in the dark, i'm on my back underneath the camaro on the side of a busy road trying to force a hot muffler back on just so we could get home, while cars are flying past me about 2 feet away. We managed to get it to his block and then it fell off again. We said F*** it and drove home scraping the muffler on the ground! lol

 

i would say American Racing Tourqe Thrust II's, but that's just me..


Sweet story .....i can join the club of beaters now too...i just got a 94 Ford Tempo (4cyl) and i have to floor it just to keep in sight of my g/f's car..(98 Plymouth Neon) let alone any good V-8.....but hey it gets good gas milage

 

one thing that i really like about your car is how ordinary it looks dispite the beast under the hood. i love how your car looks like a stock RS. but that just me. if you get new rims, you cant go wrong w/ crome 17" IROCS

 

Actually.... it just got a color change and the motor won't be in till next weekend But we're workin on it. We had fun pushing it tonight huh?

 

yeah, the Camaro was a beast without the motor and trans. Probably could do the 1/4 mile in 12....minutes

Actually, the rims I had on the car, the RS ones, didnt look all that bad with the red paint. So they will do till more $$$ shows up. I am still a little disappointed with the paint job though...
