Best week of my life
 
I know it sounds pathetic but I feel like my life has turned around in the past week. I spent the past 2 years pretty agitated and constantly felt like just about everybody was just pissing me off. It got to the point that I didn't want to hang out with more than one or two people and lost a lot of friends because of it.

Started the week off getting a really good deal on a 1969 Camaro (and was given a huge garage to keep it in and work on it at right down the road from my house) and tomorrow I am trading my 94 Z28 + parts for a 1995 Tahoe (2 door). Sad to see my Z28 go but I'm kind of excited to own a clean 2 door. I've always wanted both these vehicles and obtained them in the same week. I guess life isn't all that bad and nothing can ruin this week :wink:

Only thing that can make this week better is having DMV approve my custom QQ plates. Don't think they'll fall for it though :kneeslap:

Thanks. Good to hear your week is going good also!

Debating harassing a friend about a TBI 454 he has with 22,000 miles on it... would make this little Tahoe pull like a pig.

iron 5.3 or 6.0 would improve literally everything and not cost to much money

I can't have a huge amount of down time on the Tahoe. I'm literally taking all my other vehicles off insurance but I do have access to my brother's vehicles 99% of the time.

Carbed 6.0 wouldn't sound bad but honestly I don't want to invest that kind of money into this.

Drive it how it is for a while and find yourself a wecked full size and take everything

You should get a tattoo to commemorate such a week!

BonzoHansen 09-30-2012 03:39 PM

you have big plans for the 69 camaro? if so maybe leave the nice clean truck alone and just drive it. put the time & money into the car.

donnj 09-30-2012 03:53 PM

x2, that truck looks killer!!!! new set of wheels for it maybe and drive that thing, just would hate to hear come mid December that the drive for both projects has burnt out and the winter blues have set in. Been there way too many times......

Yeah that's pretty much my plan. I am debating trying to nab a low mileage TBI 454 as a backup motor and leave it in the workshop. As it sits it will stay, just getting cleaner bumpers and a few interior parts to make it perfect.

Keep it stock and just use it.

....no homo. If you ever feel the need to ride in one of the roachier '69s just stop on by lol.

Good to hear its going well for you. Not bad nabbing two rides you wanted in a week. But I have to say, you have me curious as to what you wanted the plate to say....LOL.

Afraid if I say it someone else with a 1969 car will steal it :shock:
It very well might slip past DMV. It's clever but would totally offend any church goers.

Fair enough, lemme know after the process is through.
