2001 Camaro Z28
most of you guys know the story about my car, but incase you dont, here it is.
2001 Camaro Z28 Hardtop Basicly Stock, Has a Full exhaust and a nice trans. Picked the car up after getting tipped off by my friend. Trans was blown, had its dents, interior had ribs, but $2k for a 01 LS1 car... i couldnt pass it up... Pics from the day i bought it home(on the right) https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net..._7514768_n.jpg https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net..._5422168_n.jpg |
after replacing the trans, i decided to throw some new wheels on it. as many of you know my style, i really dont like to do what other people have done already. i decided to go with SS 10 spokes sprayed black with a red lip. more commonly known as the "lego" wheels on here. some people loved them, some people hated them. i also added SFC, LCAs,LCA Relos, and TQ arm.

taking the black out theme ever further, i went with 5% tints all around, tainted tails, smoked headlights and smoke foglights.

i decided why not mix it up a little bit and slap an LT1 front end on the car along with a satin black paint job. Me being me decided to take it to the next level. instead of going with the normal under hood intake set up, i decided to go with a "ram air/shaker" to the car. and in true "LULZ" fasion, i decided to draw a Rage Commic on the hood, and little did i expect, it blew up. what started out as a joke for duke island meet, turned into a giant internet story gathering up many hits and discussions all over the web.

getting bored the the whole thing i opted back to a flat hood. the car has been having its issues lately and it is getting ran threw over this winter. itll be back and the thread will be updated along with it.

I love that you went with an lt1 front end. i prefer that over the ls1 front clip and never got why so many people with lt1 cars do ls1 swaps...just get an ls car and swap the front! haha. glad to see you are sticking with the car though even after the accident. to many people gst in minor fender benders and part them out which kills me

im accually debating a part out of the car now. keepin the drivetrain. hopefully the hear will live on in a notchback...

That's not THAT bad. Besides, you have a beater. Keep it and fix it as you can, starting with the rear and windshield. Far from part out material. I'm with Jason on that topic, I hate it when people part out cars unnecessarily.

Its easy fixes. Pals can assemble. And destroy. Your choice.

your car looked great blacked out. you really need to finish the orange paint job and semi gloss it.
