Unhappy I miss my old Camaros

I was goin throughall my pictures tryin to find past paint jobs I have done. I come across photos of my past Camaros. I miss them.

The yellow was my 1981 Camaro. It had approx. 500,000 miles on it. It started life as a base V-6 Model which around the 350,000 mile mark it passed away. My stepfather took the streetrod's 350 and through that into the car. the engine then proceeded to kill the tranny. The streetrod then sacrificed its tranny for. The dents in the fender are from a deer I clobbered. Hit him doin 50mph, he hit the nose of the car and that was all the worse the car was.

The 1981 again with 87GTA's old 88 Formula. Yes this was when I first started painting and the flames ended up looking like squiggly scalops.

The last was my 1992 Camaro RS. I picked this up used with 36,000 miles on it in 2002. I loved it. Tried to pass my brother in his 04 Cavalier and couldnt get around him and he didnt even have the gas down all the way. I was pissed 6 months later i traded it in on my 2001 SS.

Lets see how far we can take this post some pics of all your old cars that you might be missing.

i still have my first car, the 88

my 2nd car was a 92 RS teal with silver heritage stripes, sold it to my aunt with 80k and shes still got it


bought this truck, 87 S10 with a 350 swap and lowered and a ton of other mods, got cut off by an old lady from texas within a month of getting it and it got crushed



so i needed a replacment for the truck and landed in a 92 mustang GT, all blacked out with ur stock fox body mods of a CAI and some flowmasters, sold it when i got the 88 running




within a month the 88 being my DD, it died and i needed a car ASAP and someone in town was selling this 1975 mustand II with 38k miles on it, lets just say LOL and i sold it after 3 months for way more then i paid for it




next i got a 91 Z28 L98 with a blown trans, got it fixed and blew the head gaskets and cracked a head, got that all fixed and drove it for about a year before gettin my 95 which is the current DD

i didn't notice you posted this lol, i bought it off a guy in south amboy for $800 it had flowtech headers and an over axle TD system, i ended up parting it out because the tranny went and i didnt feel like fixing it.
