Update

[usp55]

I haven’t been posting on the board for a while what with full time school and a full time job. Just got a set of 01' 10 spokes today and wanted to post a pic.

Pic doesn’t do the chrome justice - it rained the entire time I was putting them on and as soon as I tightened the last nut...it stopped, sun came out.

[GrandmasterCow]

looking VERY nice man, I've always liked the 10-spoke chrome rims. Esp combined with the WW ground effects, i think it makes camaros, expecially your style, very sharp looking.

[ap2000z28]

Looks good man..just took mine off about 2 weeks ago.

[1_Hot_SOM_WS6]

Looks good 8-)

[bubba428]

is that a auto or 5 speed?

[chrisfrom nj]

looks nice

[ap2000z28]

btw what did you do with the silver 10 spokes??

[usp55]

thanks all - its an auto.
I still have the silver ones, just need new rubber for them. I was running my salad shooters for a while.

[ap2000z28]

nice..if you decide on letting them go let me know

[usp55]

i will - what did u put on when u took your 10 spokes off?

[bubba428]

its an auto.

My condolences. have you done anything to the engine?

[Frosty]

Looks good. I like it.

Don't worry about the heat you're going to get for the car being an auto, usually those that criticize can't keep a car running for more than 2 days or can't get out of the 14's...or both :lol:

[deadtrend1]

i don't see why its bad to own a auto.

Car looks good though

[bubba428]

nothing...but It makes a huge difference in times as far as "from factory" goes

[01SS]

Look Sweet

[ap2000z28]

put back on the stockers for winter/salt

[usp55]

bubba - I've nothing to the engine beside rebuild it about 10k ago. only a 6 cyl, so im not racing anyone as it is so why bother to squeeze a few extra ponys out of it. Just a daily driver i like to play around with.

ap2000z28 - no i was just asking what rims u put on for the winter. As close as we live to each other i never see your car.

Thats because Bubba has to ask the stupid questions...


Nice wheels, they look nice on your maro

lol, i missed that the first time!

U know that 2,400 of bubba's post are random stupid crap...
come on now, Bubba, you know that you had to be #5 to post and couldn't comment about the wheels! No wonder why u get owned almost every post!

[deadtrend1]

ap2000z28 - no i was just asking what rims u put on for the winter. As close as we live to each other i never see your car.

the stock salad shooters he said....

[usp55]

yea i missed that one...

[ap2000z28]

haha yea I hate the look of the car, thats why i wanted to know bout your silver 10 spokes. always wanted to powdercoat a set black for the winter :nod:

[usp55]

I'm not sure what I want to do yet. The silver ones need a new set of rubber, i still have the salad shooters with goood rubber. I think im gona save the cash instead of buying new rubber for the silver 10 spokes and put that towards the ss spoiler and ss hood + paint that i want. Whick means i dont need the silvers, but they are my brothers from when he had the car so they r really not mine to sell. I'll see if he would be interrested in selling them though, ill let you know.

[Blacdout96]

the WW kit looks great on your car, and the rims actually go with it. im not a big fan of the ten spokes, and only can be pulled off wihta few colors, and it works for oyur car withthe kit. the only thing you need for oyur car is a SS wing for it now and it will be set.

[usp55]

thanks - U beat me to it, I ordered the spoiler (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEBTOX:IT&item=290186180391&_trksid=p3984.cTODAY.m238.lVI) tonight. The SS hood (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEBTOX:IT&item=180205119662&_trksid=p3984.cTODAY.m238.lVI) a few weeks later and then respray the entire car the week of march 3rd. Going black again but not sure if i want to mess with painting the scoop of the SS hood diff - red? grey? not really a fan of stripes. I cant stop thinking about it.

Cause shinny stuff don't impress me. yea the car looks good, but personally I don't like shinny fancy wheels,and why would I repeat the same comment:looking VERY nice man, I've always liked the 10-spoke chrome rims. Esp combined with the WW ground effects, i think it makes camaros, expecially your style, very sharp looking.


the question of auto or manual is relevant cause this thread is not in the appearance section, and being that it makes a huge difference in the performance of the car I asked. It also costs 3mpg to have an auto 3.4.

whats the exact color of your car, ill give you my best imput, of stay or spray

[usp55]

i wish i knew. That paint job is a 4 year old baseline macco paint job from when my brother had the car.

[Blacdout96]

hm, is it hunter green or black? m eyes say one thng and then in a pic i see a slith green , but it might be from the lens

[ap2000z28]

I think the car is black? Im not sure, ups55 you live in TWP right?

[usp55]

no its black, sorry i wasnt sure if different types of paint have different color codes. wasnt sure where u were going with that.

yea ap - H Valley

[Blacdout96]

keep the car completely black, except for the hood scoop, theres a vinyl kit out there that looks nasty for it if I can find it.

[usp55]

i think id rather spray the scoop than have a decal put on it. might cost more but i think the end result will be better, but let me see the kit if u find it.

[Blacdout96]

Well I cant find the kit, but I can find it on a car. its called a Camaro ZL-1 supercar. Im not a big fan of the vinyl at the inlet of the scoop, but what lays on top I love and if I get a SS hood I might get that. and get yours in red, personally, only yello or red go well with a black car in my eyes.

yea ap - H Valley

haha i knew it..i live right down the street from you man in quay

[usp55]

yea im right down on walton.

what about this beast - i think it photoshoped but looks nasty.

[ap2000z28]

eh looks ok..too much going on for me. How much is your bro looking to get for the rims.

[usp55]

- yea i know its just something different.

- i talked to hime last night, he payed a pretty penny for them 2 years ago and they have been sitting in my garage for the past 6 months. make him a reasonable offer and im sure he sell em to yea. like i said they have rubber on them but nothing i would ride on, hell the one tire has i think 4 diff nails in it, ha. If u wana stop by tonigh ill be here all night and he'll be homw after 11 (if he dosent go bowling) if u wana talk to him bout a price you to can agree on.

[ap2000z28]

I'll give him $250 no tires..lmk

[usp55]

ill let him know when i see him

[usp55]

250 is just not worth it he said. $400 is as low as he will go. He wanted more, talked him down cause i dont think they would ever sell for what he wanted. They also have the center caps.

[ap2000z28]

nah thats ok man ill prob just pick up a set on ls1tech..let me know if you go to any meets or anything well cruise there together if you want.

[usp55]

Ok - that’s a definite on the cruse - I haven’t been to any meets and I cant wait to get the car finished and show it off. I plan on painting it the 1st week in march – hopefully the winter will be winding down and people will have their maro’s back on the street not long after.
