Aloha from New York

I'm Sean and I'm from Upstate New York, I'm almost 19 and when i graduated from High School i was pretty much the biggest Gearhead of the school.

I ran the school's automotive club which it's main focus was a1969 Pontiac Firebird 400 project car, Spent 4 years on the project and sadly never got to see it finished due to School funding being cut for Clubs the Automotive Club was "lucky" enough to be one of the ones that were disbanded at the end of senior year(yet we were self funded?), so we had to sell off the project (school kept money ofcourse calling it a learning experience)
-
I own an All factory original 1988 Camaro Iroc-Z L98 Black with red. It's my Pride & Joy and don't ever plan on getting rid of it. I do plan on making it better in all aspects once i can get the coin to do so.

Atm its the Stock L98 350TPI w/ 700r4. But i plan on getting it bored out. Holley Stealth Ram(polished), Afr 195 Heads, 30lb injectors, Comp Cam 276hr10 (or zz4/zz9), Custom Burnt Chip, 12 bolt 3.73, 2.5->3k Stall converter, TransGO shift kit, Spohn suspension, upgraded rotors and calipers, B&M Megashifter, Dyno Don Custom Headers & Y-pipe, Magnaflow Highflow cat, 3" Magnaflow Catback exhaust.

~ This is my list atm(doesn't include everything ofc) and as you prolly know there's always changes & Additions to these types of lists haha. Should put it in the mid to low 11s, Still would be daily driven as often as can excluding bad condition days and winter ofcourse. I ain't gonna be building no Garage queen

Re: Aloha from New York

Haha never selling this one bro. Its my first car and not many can say their first car was one of their dream cars
(Though as a gearhead we have many dream cars haha)

Only planning to make it better fix the flaws it has and build it w/ the Holley Stealth Ram and more. She should be running mid 11s on all motor when I got it all set and done

Nice looking car. I had a brand new 1986 Camaro Sport that I wish I never sold. Welcome to the board.

Re: Aloha from New York

Thanks, you should try tracking that 86 down if you still had the Vin#, My dad wanted to rebuy his 67 cougar that he built and reluctantly sold back in the 80s... He woulda bought it back but somehow it made it's way from New York all the way to Alabama over the course of the ~15-20years and was just too far. And sport coupes are going for real cheap now tbh, you might be able to find a good one for not a lot of $$

That's a really nice car! It should be a real runner when you get done with it
