Ok, finally got it painted, lowered, new doors, front grx, rims, seats, yadayada, what does everyone think? Also, I shaved the front emblem on the nose, and the antenna, and did the headlight bay area with red as well!!

I'm from upstate NY, and I got an offer on the car today, the first day it's out of the paint shop. I'm asking 12k for it, and got offered 11 today! Might just do it. I'll miss my 6spd for sure though

Mark A Shields 10-09-2002 03:05 PM

That looks more orange to me, or is it just my screen?

SSaudio 10-09-2002 03:06 PM

the pic with the seats, is an old pic, before paint, the original paint was fadded badly from the texas sun!

Dude, you have NO idea how much better the car would look with the headlight area being black instead of orange, especially with the stripes and that color...

I see stripes on the hood and I think I can see some on the spoiler, but there are none on the roof? Very nice by the way.

Why would you sell it after getting such a nice paint job?

Andy Fanshawe 10-09-2002 03:28 PM

Superb job!:hail:
How have you lowered it, and how far?

Andy.

SSaudio 10-09-2002 03:37 PM

well, just a hobby, I build these camaro's then sell them, now i'm gonna by a LT1 vette I think. The springs were Eibrach (not sure on spelling) 2" lowering springs, with all new suspension, bushings, and everything

Mark A Shields 10-09-2002 03:41 PM

Hmm, buy , fix up, sell. It's hard to get out of them what you pay. How's your luck been?

oh yeah, check out Thirdgen Nationals '03 in my sig, if you still have one by then.:D

traditionaly chevrolet only put stripes on the hood and the rear. im prety shure all cars that came from the factory with stripes only had them in these places, it's people who paint their own stripes on their cars put them on the roof too. i usually dont like seeing stripes on the roof of chevys, that's what ford does with their cars, unless of course you're a ford guy.;)

All it needs is the black headlight pockets :(

SSaudio 10-09-2002 05:18 PM

I tryed it with out them to set it apart, and I think it may make it look allittle cleaner..

82firebird 10-09-2002 05:21 PM

Very sweet, I have to agree with the rest of those who say black headlight pockets would only make it look that much better. I think it looks pretty sweet though, good luck w. selling it!

85maroz28 10-09-2002 06:38 PM

Another vote for blk headlight pockets!! By the way badass car too.

bubbakutz 10-09-2002 07:20 PM

nice, i like ur wheels what kind are they?
thanks bub

MdFormula350 10-09-2002 07:33 PM

thats one awesome car!!

MetalliCamaroRS 10-09-2002 09:34 PM

Looks awesome. I thought it was orange at first and I was in love. Red is alright, but I've always wanted to see an orange thirdgen Camaro with black heritage stripes.

SSaudio 10-09-2002 10:02 PM

the wheels are C5 chrome

CGCBandit 10-09-2002 10:24 PM

Damn, that is nice. makes me want to start strippin the paint off mine and get some new wheels...

Oh yeah I think it looks good WITH the head light pockets red..

86IROCNJ 10-10-2002 11:06 AM

I think they have covered the looks, now what about performance? Have any pics of what's under the hood? The color look awsome! I like it, besides, you do not see too many C5 chrome wheels either. Nice job.

heres the pics for the engine bay, also, there is like 50 more on my site, just follow the sig..

FLYNLOW92rs 10-10-2002 06:54 PM

Just a quick question, is that car a 1991 or 1992 because the 1991 model wasn't the 25th Anniversary....

SSaudio 10-10-2002 07:28 PM

it is a 91, it has all the badges, but not sure if it's a real 25th, i've heard, both arguments, but either way, all the 25th was was stripes, and dash badge..lol
