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
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


here it is in fall 2005... post TPI conversion and headers/exhaust, painted stock wheels for winter and some stripes


this might be spring 2007, C5Z wheels and adapters, high rise wing, louvers


june of 2007 came some night shaded tails and the 92 gfx conversion began


by august 2007 the gfx were painted, and stripes removed


by sept 07 i was bored with all white, purchased 4th gen hockey stripes
