Hello from Los Angeles
Hi, everyone. I'm Kevin and I finally got my 5th Gen dream Camaro back on December 28th, 2013. I'd been wanting one in black with red stripes ever since I saw the concept back in the day and had bought a little cheapy remote control version for my desk at work in order to keep the vision of having one in front of me. Finally, after years of bad credit and a few rough spots I was finally able to get everything sorted out and brought Veronica home with me just in time for the new year.
She was completely naked when I first got her, save for a really rippin' exhaust that lets her either growl or scream at the slower cars on the road, depending on how she's feeling that day. Since then I've slowly begun the process of turning her into a show car, grabbing a few pieces of jewelry for her here and there. Of course, the first item on the list was her red stripes. Attached are a few pics of her upgrades. Her first hour with me:  image hosting above 5 mb  upload images The last pic before getting her stripes.  upload an image  photo uploading  image url  upload image online  jpg images Then I started buying her jewelry to show her how much I love her.  Chrome door and vent trim, side marker trim, trunk trim and reverse light bezels.  image sharing sites  upload photos  free upload  screen capture software  adult photo sharing Then I started adding interior upgrades. Kickplates, pull handle trim and speaker rings:  uploading pictures  image url upload  photo storage Just got new locks:  image url upload Radio, steering arms and headlight trim:  how do i print screen  how do i print screen Camaro Badge on the dashboard:  online photo storage The current state of the interior:  image hosting over 10mb  image upload no size limit I've already ordered a few hundred more dollars' worth of accessories from ACC so I'll have the vents, radio and cupholder trimmed up. Next I'm going for red and black s. leather seat covers, floor mats and a red dash and door trim paint job. More pics to come and I'll be sure to start my journal to show her progress. I found a local Camaro club and look forward to meeting a few of you for a Sunday drive sometime. |

 upload image online Poor Malibu. She'd been smacked so many times by careless drivers and was loyal to the very end after almost 8 years and 156,000 miles, but once her intake manifold blew it was curtains. This time around I'm doing things a bit differently. Besides, it feels much better to pick up a new date without saying, "she may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, kid" and hoping she gets the Star Wars reference. |

CONGRATS on your 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, dad's, wives', husband's, girlfriend's and boyfriend's 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!!
