Long time troller but finaly decided to register.

My story is I live in Phx, AZ, finishing up my first degree, house, no kids, dual income and have never owned a muscle car. Loved the old cudas,camaros,stangs ect.. just plain old raw HP and have always wanted to rebuild a corvette from the frame up. Well I'm saving that project for retirement since the advent of the new "retro" style cars being released. After looking hard at the mustangs, coworker baught a v6 one, and seeing the challenger turning into a collectors item out of the factory Ive decided the combination of style and power of the camaro are for me. The long wait for production fits in well as it will allow me to pay off my truck and get a down payment together.

Cheers

Welcome to the site! That is a clean looking F-body you have there - very nice!

With all of that work you have planned for it, do you intend to keep it once the 5th gen comes around?

My bad, bro. Saw ur post and was like, huh? Scrolled up and saw I passed right over you...:eek: Of course you are welcome here!!! A four banger n/a , I would imagine, would get you acceptable gas mileage. Now, double the torque and hp of that eclipse and figure you'd be getting better gas mileage.....pretty darn cool if you ask me. Again, welcome to the site and jump on in the forums!

Great to have you here! Hope you join in on the discussion and have a great time here. Actually, I'm from Chicago...well...born in Cooke County (think that's the name of the hosp) and lived in Elk Grove for a very short period of time. Mom and Dad are from there. Grandpa lived about 10 blocks away from Midway and sold his house, oh, 8 years ago. Loved going up there to visit when we had the chance. Love the Bears and my cubbies too!

Welcome! Glad to see the midwest base grow even larger! I lived in Chicago for the past 3 years before recently moving to Indianapolis. I absolutely loved the city and my wife had to take me kicking and screaming.

However, I do have to say, forget the Cubs - GO SOX!
