1988 Camaro Sports Coupe
 
This summer was the 10th year of me owning my 88 Camaro, bought it at 15yo, and I turned 25 this summer:huh:
For the past 3-4 years it has taken a backseat to pretty much everything... ive been fixing up other cars and selling them, i buy myself sumthin new to drive daily like once a year and focus on making them pretty... the camaro finally got a garage maybe 3 years ago now, and its about 20 minutes from home, the saying out of sight, out of mind comes to play, as it got taken out only twice in 2010 and not at all in 2011.
finally it cant pass nj emmisions anymore, its carb'd with no emmisions equipment left... stupid nj changed the 'collectors registration/inspection' rules the year i was due and i missed it :( waiting for it to be a historic vehicle in a few years lol

this is the oldest i have on this computer... id say fall 2004
