November Car of the Month Submissions

[BonzoHansen]

Anyone can post one photograph of only their Camaro or Firebird in this thread. Photographs of multiple cars or cars with models will not be accepted.

Please include your real name and a short paragraph (at least a few sentences) describing the ongoing project(s) being done to the car and/or a short story about the car as well.

If this is not posted in this thread by the time voting begins, your car will not be included in the vote.

All submitted pictures should be a minimum size of 640 x 480, as this is the size of the image that will be posted on the home page. If you aren't sure of the size, post it up the largest image you have (within reason), or send a private message to me for assistance.

At the last week of the month we will post a poll that will last for one week and the winner will get to spend the following month showcased on the home page of the site. Past winning cars (regardless of ownership changes) will not be eligible to enter again for 24 months.

Any pic considered poor quality by staff (blurry, cell phone, etc) will be ignored in COTM voting.

Please limit this thread to posts submitting pictures only. Comments and other chit-chat will be removed and offending users will be penalized.

GET THOSE SUBMISSIONS IN!!!

This is my 1986 T/a. The body has about 290,000 miles on it. It's original home was in the carolina's before i owned it, then north jersey in hackettstown nj. Car has a 350 Ho motor, 140mph speedo, 8,000 rpm meter. Engine has about 51,000 miles on it. Soon i will be working on the carb to update it from it's 15 year old edlebrock 4 barrel, and perhaps fix the broken torque converter. Hoping to update the suspension. Track specs are 15.2 at 85 mph

2001 Camaro SS M6. I purchased the car in november of 2009 for $7000, the body had 125k and the motor/trans/rear were fresh. It was too good of a deal to not pass up. I drove to burbs of DC to pick it up, and to say the deal was shady is an understatement. The car now has a cam only lq4, Tuned by TMR, moser 12 bolt, and almost full suspension. Has ran a best of 11.88@119. The LS6 clutch finally took a dump on me and it will be getting replaced this winter along with the rear getting rebuilt. I will be shooting for 11.49's or better next season. Turbo build possible in the future.

1998 Camaro Z28. Bright Purple Metallic. Traded my '94 Z28 back to the person I bought it from for this one. Car was mostly stock aside from a TCI converter and a UMI adjustable torque arm. Soon after purchase, I installed Strano springs, Koni shocks, UMI double adjustable roto-joint/poly lower control arms, UMI Roto/Poly double adjustable panhard bar, bolt-on LCA relocation brackets, and weld-in UMI subframe connectors. I also installed a low-mileage 3.42 rear axle with a Summit support cover.

Engine mods are an LS6 intake with a ported throttle body and an SLP lid. Exhaust is a set of Dynatech stainless headers and their off-road Y that I welded high-flow mini cats into, connected to a Magnaflow catback.

Transmission is stock with a Yank SS3600 converter.

Exterior mods are a set of C6 Z06 style 17" wheels with 275/40/17 tires all around, a set of Depo whistler-style headlights, and clear front marker lights that were on the car when I bought it. Original fog light housings were shot, so I bought a set of blazer fog lights, and modified the factory brackets to hold them. They look 100% stock, but only cost $40 plus the mods to the brackets.

I have HP tuners, so I tuned the car myself.

The car has run (on a set of drag radials) a best of 12.35 @ 110.4 at Island Dragway.

Future mods include a set of ported 243 heads and a cam, possibly this winter.
