My GM Rides

Hi all, While I am not new to this site. I am on it everyday getting my dose of GM information, I do not post on it. Partly because I have had dial up internet for so long. So now that I have high speed I thought I would share a few pics of my rides, and perhaps start to post

Thanks Hitman1970 for the site. Works great. So here are a couple full size pics.



First is my 2006 GMC Canyon




My 1978 Chevrolet Camaro Z28



My 1985 Chevrolet Camaro that I just sold



My dads 1987 Chevrolet Camaro 2.8L 5 Speed




Pic of all together including my moms 2005 G6

Re: My GM Rides

Thanks everybody for the welcome. I just thought I would post some more pics of my 78'.

The 1978 Camaro is all orginal right now. Has 132,000 KM. The only thing on the car that is not orginal is the exhaust system which I put on.







Even has the oringal spare tire with the inflator tool, which I don't believe will still work.



Interior is all original





Engine bay is all orginal for now

Re: My GM Rides

This winter I am debating on what to do with the Camaro. I do like it all orginal but.. I wish do to some things to it. They are:

New Cam, Intake and Carb to get that better sounding V8 rumble

Getting better exhust treatment at the rear. don't like the plain exhaust pipes.

Moving the battery to the trunk, then moveing the coolant overflow tank to where the battery is. Removeing the charcoal canister and moving the windshield washer resovoir there, to make the engine area more clean.

Installing a dress up kit from GM. Here is a pic.



Also looking at getting new wheels from American Racing. There called Torq-Thrusts



Any thoughts or other suggestions that you have seen on camaro's and liked?
