Default 1998 Trans AM/ 1969 Camaro





TA is basically stock and will probably stay that way... Plan on buying one of the new Maro's when they come out and don't know if I will hold onto the TA or not I only bought it to keep my spirts up while the Maro is down.

The baby's story:

I bought my first 69 Camro when I was 15... I didn't know much then and bought a rusted out piece of shit that was eventaully used for parts when I found a shell from one of my friends dad. I got all the body work down and did a basic tune up on my 327 and was saving up to do a complete re-build... well the motor locked up and it sat for a while till I had enough money to throw in a 350. Fast Forward till now... speed bug hit and the engine is out again... bottom end is almost complete.

First Car

Drool, hell fap worthy man. I love that color combo on that gen of the maro.

Thanks for all the comments!
'm building up my 350 and hope to get 400-450 hp out of it.

The T/A will be paid off in about 4 months and I'm undecided as to what will happen with it. I really want one of the new Camaros and if I got that I would probably sell the T/A becuase I don't have much room to store any cars... plus I would set back some of the money to buy back my brother's 66 Chevelle Malibu(bought it for him when he was 16 I was 13) it is a four door and I haven't seen to many of em and it was always fun to ride it. The money from the T/A would get that resto off the ground.
