Pics of the SS

Post by JimmyDiamond »

Finally snapped some pics of the car today after owning it since May27th! Treated it to claybar, 1 coat of Liquid Glass pre-cleaner and then 1 coat of Liquid Glass. Damn, I forgot how hard silver is to wax because you can't see where you've done!

Pics kinda suck due to the sun angle but you get the idea. I'll have to get some lower sun angle (evening) pics at a different time.

Here's my favorite angle (I love dual exhaust tips :drool: )

Nice car! :thumb:

Have you done any mods to it yet, :idea: or are you going to keep it stock? :(

Only window tint so far. I probably won't do much to it. Maybe an air intake of some sort but nobody makes one for it yet. Honestly, it really doesn't need much!

An air intake always helps a little. :wink: How is the T-Blazer doing?

T-blazer is great. My 48" Fire & Ice LED bar should be here next week. :D

I've got a long list of things I'd like to do to it but baby #2 is due in 2 weeks so between medical bills and then 2 in daycare I won't be able to afford to pay attention much less buy mods!!

Thanks

It's a FWD 3.9 V6 with 240hp/241tq

It's very peppy. It will paint two nice long black marks very easily with the T/C turned off. I would never do that of course. :evil: 8)
