"Sinister" got a Halloween B-Day

Kinda Corny little neat Story here but I just had to share with you guys.

I had previously posted a few months back that my wife and I waited to order our Camaro on July 23rd. This is a very special day for me because it is the Birthday of my Younger Brother whom I tragically lost two years ago. We both grew up together loving Camaros and I know he would have loved the 5th Gens.

Well On with the story....A few days after July 23rd my wife affectionately nicknamed our Camaro "Sinister" because she knew my brother would have really loved that name. We actually went ahead and ordered our personalized plate and ended up with "SIN1STR".

Approaching the month of October, I jokingly told my wife that my brother wanted "SINISTER" to be built on "Halloween" since Halloween was absolutely his favorite Holiday. He loved Halloween so much that He even had a cat named "VooDoo"

This morning at 10:15 I got a voicemail from my dealer telling me that I Finally had a VIN...........and the BEST NEWS!!!!!!

She was built on 10/31 "Halloween Day"

I just know my brother is looking down at me with a big smile on his face.
