I never formally introduced myself!

Hello from northern Indiana. I never introduced myself on here so better late than never. My name is nate. I'm a 24 year old steel worker, proud father of a 13 month old boy, and owner of a black 2010 2SS/RS Ls3 24k miles. Always loved the camaro and this is my first time owning one. I've had it since October 2013 and due to ridiculous amounts of snow, it's been stored in the garage for the past 3 1/2 months. I've been buying things for it and installing them in preparation for my first summer with it. Anticipation is killing me (just ordered Kooks LT and Magnaflow Muffler deletes )

Welcome

What steel mill do you work at? I worked at Mittal for a few yrs out of college. Still have family working there. Hope you don't drive the car to work it's pretty dirty there

Oh ok that's a little further east. Probably a little cleaner too.

Nate, then lets make it official!!

CONGRATS on the ride, and Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to Camaro5. There is a BIG fridge on the back porch with anything you can think of in it...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. Make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom's, wive's, husbands, girlfirends and boyfriends here don't care....and take it easy.



oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!!

I have a 4 banger Alero that I take to work n back. 40 minute drive to work one way, so that helps keep my mileage relatively low on the camaro & saves a little bit of wear n tear.
And since it's my first camaro I have a tendency to baby it as far as not getting it covered in road salt, keeping Mileage low, excessive washing& detailing etc.

I'm keeping my build somewhat simple. It will look mostly stock, but beefed up with a pretty engine bay. The only exterior cosmetic stuff I plan on doing are hood vents, led side markers and some black 10 spoke zl1/1le style wheels. BUT we all know how that goes, one mod leads to another, so we'll see
