A Camaro wedding

Well I got married last Saturday (May 23rd)!

Krista and I have been together for 4 1/2 years, and finally tied the knot. Since the rules are strict about posting pictures that do not relate to 3rd gens, I'll only post the pictures from the wedding day that include the car.



Here's a handful:

Re: A Camaro wedding

Thanks guys


Yea my buddy Cam (Cam-aro here on TGO) came up for the wedding and I gave him strict instructions to not let anyone put anything on the car that would damage the paint. They went easy on my compared to what has happened to some of my friends' cars on their wedding days.

Re: A Camaro wedding

Awesome pics. One question why is the top up? I won't take the old girl out of the garage if top has to be up, I think its a sin or something, maybe even a commandment of a vert owner! Just kidding Congratulations, none the less.

Re: A Camaro wedding

The top was up per my bride's request. She didn't want her hair to get messed up, and I don't blame her, it was her special day.

Re: A Camaro wedding

Actually...

Try to make it look like you spend more on her (your wife) than your car, that will make her happy... If you pay too much attention to your car then you may find that she may grow to resent it...

My other suggestion is that you do everything to your car before you make any kids... then you will no longer be able to, no matter what she tells you.

I guess I should have expounded on my comment before.

Oh yea I know what you mean now haha

Krista is actually really supportive of my LSX swap, and we don't PLAN to have any kids for a few years.

Heh, this is what happened at my wedding. This was after all the photos were taken and everything. Only the wedding party and close college friends are present. The old 305 didnt sound too bad back then!

At that time it was Edelbrock TES headers, no cat, and an edelbrock cat back. That was shortly after the 5speed conversion. The car went traction limited 13.70s@101mph at that point.

Re: A Camaro wedding

Very cool pictures! I like what they did with the "Bride" and "Groom" on the windshield :-) I wish I had my T/A repainted for my wedding... or running. I was 95% done with the LT1 swap but didn't quite make it in time.
