The car is a 2000 pontiac trans am, 6 speed manual,fully loaded with leather, SLP Lid, SLP strut tower brace,hurst shifter, hurst classic shift ball white. Amazing shape inside and out. This car is my daily driver. I got the car july of 2008. So far I have put 5,000 miles on it. I cant get enough of it. I always dreamed of having a LS1 trans am. And here it is. car had one owner before me. Appears the owner was in the air force and had to sell the car because they got deployed or they came back and used their money and traded this in for something else.

sure.....i'll make a paragraph because i have to!!! :D ahHA! found the old one!

Name is James Newcomb. I've owned the car for 3 1/2 years. When i bought the car everything was original, including plugs and wires. Original Dash/interior plastic is still in fantastic condition. Since then I've had the upholstery redone, 2 paintjobs lol, added a 91 high rise spoiler, GTS Tail light blackouts, Fiberglass T/A Style Ram Air hood with functional air box, throttle body air foil, hooker headers, flowmaster muffler, custom exhaust tips with a notch in the bumper. Car has been put back together peice by peice, almost a restoration imo i've replaced so many things.

1987 Trans Am
I bought this car about 4 years ago at the dealership I work for. It has a stock 305 under the hood with Flowtech headers and a 3" Flowmaster exhaust. I rebuilt the front suspension last summer with all new poly bushings, Spohn wonder bar, Hotchkis SFC's and new shocks. In the next few weeks I hope to get started on the rear suspension, swapping out the current rear for a posi with disc brakes, panhard bar and new LCA's.

This 1989 IROC was my very first car. I bought it back in 1996 with money I saved up from working summer jobs in high school. The car had 54,000 miles on it when I bought it and I daily drove it for 4 years. Then I pulled it off the road and completely disassembled it. Every nut and bolt has been painted or powdercoated. Engine is a 383 with AFR heads and an Accel Super Ram. Z06 Corvette brakes, new interior sponsored by Year One and Hawks, 17" chrome IROC style wheels, Spohn suspension, etc.

By the way I have no idea how to put the pic right in the post so if a mod wants to change it, go right ahead haha.

First pic, launching N/A pulling a tire off the ground.

Second pic, lightened up, and the other tire is begging for a bit more power to get air also.


Name: James
Info: 1997 Pontiac Firebird 3.8L V6 A4
Basically, I spent a lot of time with weight reduction/ relocation, suspension, and gearing/transmission. The engine just has ported heads, intake and 1.8 roller rockers..... everything else is stock. I got 1.58 60 ft and 12.1 out of it with a 100 shot wet kit, 3200 stall and 3:23's..... and added 4:10's and a 4200 stall and haven't figured out how to hook.... it is severely traction limited. 12.1 has been a barrier in the car.... and once I spend a bit more time with the suspension.... I will be a happy person.

And now, there are proven aftermarket cams and stroker kits out there so who knows what the future holds ;)

Re-read the rules....if there is no descriptions, the pic doesn't go into the vote. :razz:

1989 Camaro IROC-Z
350ci

I bought this car from a friend as a total wreck back in 2003 when I was a senior in HS. I was currently working at an auto body shop and spent many nights and weekends fixing the driver side suspension as well as prepping the whole car for a repaint. The car was daily driven for about 3 years and is now a garage king. The car is basically a full bolt-on car. It has new factory L98 heads, AC/smog/delete, Hooker Super Comp long tube headers, mufflex ORY, 3" magnaflow cat-back, 3.42 posi 10 bolt rear, 17x9 Miglia wheels, fiberglass SS hood, and 4th gen charcoal/gray cloth seats. I recently finished the suspension rebuild including bigger sway bars, poly bushings, new steering components, and an eibach pro-kit. I still have to finish the 91-92 GFX swap and possibly a Hawk's 5" spoiler and then the car will be where I want it as far as appearance goes. I also have future plans for a 400 small block and a T56.

James Carducci
1999 Pontiac Firebird Formula

I bought this car 3 years ago and have been constantly working designing and breaking it in the effort of "fun". The car is making more power with a full exhaust and intake with tubular suspension components to plant the power being transferred from a stalled trans built by JS Performance. The car is accessorized inside with custom gauges and recaro seating and dressed up outside in stainless steel and custom Firehawk hood and Iroc spoiler. It sits low on 18 x 9 RPM 505 wheels lying in wait to be delivered to JS Perforfance for a rebuild with performance heads and cam this month!!!

1998 Trans Am

I bought the car in the begining of the summer with all the mods done to the car. It has kooks long tube headers with carsound cats and magnaflow catback. The car also has an slp lid, taylor 10.4mm wires, and a tune with hp tuners. The Transmission is the stock a4 with a vig 3600 stall. The rear is a moser 12 bolt with the 3.73s. I have had plenty of fun beating this car over the summer.I hope to refresh the top end of the motor over the winter. Future plans will be to port and polish the heads, add rockers and new valves. install a small cam and a ls6 intake. Currently my best at atco is a 12.8 @ 104.

Patrick Gaspar
95 Firebird Formula
I've owned the car since December 2006. The car was completely stock when I bought it. The car is daily driven so I've been really light on mods. The only mods done to the car are an aluminum driveshaft, Spohn LCAs, K&N filter, and a Ram Air hood. The future of this car is to belong on Road Coarses, which means heavy mods will be coming soon to the suspension and drivetrain.

theres always next year.. dam, wait i wotn make that... well i WILL be in the 2011 calender, and have a 2011 Z28... thatll work out so well

This thread is only for car of the month dude:lol:

2002 Camaro SS #5290

I bought this car at Tom Oates Chevrolet in Chester Springs, PA in November 2004 with 11,000 miles on it. The car is everything I was looking for. Onyx Black, SS, M6, power windows/locks/mirrors, low mileage, t-tops, black leather, and un-molested. Since purchasing the car I have added a set of 18" C5 Z06 wheels, SLP SFC's, SLP STB, SLP Lid, & TR Ported TB. This past winter I added UMI Suspension Components consisting of Torque Arm, TA relocation kit, Panhard Bar, and Lower Control Arms. Recently installed were QTP longtubes and the Bassani True Dual Exhaust System. Future plans include a Heads & Cam Setup, and also lowering the Car with Strano Springs and Koni Shocks. I've had a blast with this car, and hope to keep it for many years to come.

1996 Pontiac Trans am

I bought the car september 14th from a guy in long island. I have always wanted a trans am and when i finally found this one it was so great because it had everything i had wanted; black car, t-tops, chrome wheels, 6-speed transmission. As for the modifications it has a borla cat-back exhaust and a SLP intake. For future modifications i want to do some suspension work as well as long tube headers and an electric cutout.

my name is bill bittel and this is my ride. no it's not a lsx it's just a turd gen.lol the car started life as my wifes DD. it came w/a 305. and for the heck of it we threw a few thousand dollars into it and got it to run an 11.47@116 w/150 shot then the bug hit me! i wanted to go faster. so the build started and it has not stopped yet. the car has the best of everything into it. check my vb garage for list. it's long. the car weighs in at 2995 lbs w/o driver and has run a best of 8.90 @ 152 mph with a 1.26 60 ft time. on the squeeze the car is putting out over 950 HP. if you ever see me at the track just ask me if you can take her for a pass down the 1320! of course i'll probally say no, but heck ask anyway, that way we'll have met. even if i got an offer for as much $$ as i have put into the car i still would'nt do it!!! the rush of going in the 8's is incredible. and we have been building this car faster for the last 10 years. fast is never fast enough lol the car is co-owned and co-driven by my son and cars mechanic ryan. whom without none of this would be possible!
