Alex, this car was one of my favorite LT1 Camaros, as I've told you a few times before. I'm sure the Trans Am you're about to build will be equally impressive.

Thanks Mike for the compliments, it was a good run. Expect a build thread for the Trans Am shortly. The motors are getting swapped this weekend and it should be on the road by the time I'm home from this deployment!
