  • Hi, My name is Wade and I'm addicted to Camaros!

    Well I think I have a Camaro problem! I've been having to fix a lot of things on my 98 Sonoma this year and it's got 128,000 on it. I started looking for a low mileage vehicle. I found a 2000 Camaro V6 with 61K on it. Sooooo......I ended up buying it today. V6 auto with full power and Monsoon CD system. It's Mystic Teal with a tan/ebony cloth interior and it has T tops. It has a few minor paint flaws that I'll be addressing soon. I'll be fixing my truck and selling it and this will be replacing it. Even owning a LS1 I still think the 3800 has quite a bit of get up and go to it. These are the crappy pictures I took when I got it home about 9:30 tonight. Once I get it all cleaned and detailed I'll post up some more pictures.

        Probably not going to do too much to this since it's going to be my daily driver. I'm wanting some different wheels for summer and use these for winter and put some snow tires on it. I might do an exhaust and maybe a cold air intake. I might put some stripes on it yet, but not sure.

                    LOL...yeah..just a daily driver now. I'll be picking up a 5th gen when those come out. Hopefully this will be reliable and last me for several years.

                      I'm attempting to follow in your addiction Wade. I'm still searching out an LS1 Z28 but I do have a 2nd gen TA behind the barn . More project then I have time/money for while in college but I couldnt pass up $500 for a roller that the only body work that has to be done is new floorpans! To bad no trans or engine. I'm thinking a 400 with a 4spd!
