And now for something completely different.... And a final farewell.

As some of you may have figured, ( by my absence) I reluctantly sold my ABM Camaro last spring. This will be my last thread..... probably.
In a last tribute to a wonderful car, I decided to try to do a cross stitch (130,000 "x"s)from a picture of Ol'blue. It came out pretty good, so I thought I would give everyone a few more shots of Camaro Porn before I go.
I also would like to thank everyone on here for answers to questions and inspiration ideas for my car over the years (13) I had it.

Man that’s a huge loss to this community. I figured you might have let it go, I remember a thread or two discussing it. That was one of my top 2 cars here. A real inspiration to my first ABM SS. Well wishes to future endeavors and hopefully you’ll stop by once in a while!

The Cross Stitch took 14 months and approx. 1000 hours. I'll miss seeing all of the Camaros on here, but I'm sure I'll stick my head in here from time to time to see what's going on. Your Camaro was definitely one of my favorites. Thanks to all of you guys for your kind comments.

The reason for selling my car, was due to health. I have had 4 heart attacks in the last 12 years and it was just getting to difficult to keep the car immaculate. Too many years of hard living I guess, but it sure was fun.

Sorry to hear and be well!

Wow! That's was a long but very worthwhile project. I'm aware of the time do do cross stitch's in that detail, as I have done some in the way past with my mom back when she used to do them. Great job. Also, thanks for the love on my Camaro, as yours too is one of my favorites in my "Camaro" picture folder. You did an AWESOME job in her build and inspired a lot of us along the way to STEP IT UP. Really going to miss seeing it. And best wishes for you and your health. Hope the Lord blesses you with lots of great time sir!!
