About “Black Magic”

Found this car for sale at a car show in Joliet IL, and my wife talked me into buying it. It's the 4th Thirdgen Camaro I've owned. When I bought this car is had 15x8 rims in the rear and 14x7's up front, and the exhaust consisted of headers straight out to two 40 series Flowmaster mufflers and no tailpipes. You couldn't hear the person in the passenger seat while driving down the road, not to mention the spark show it gave off when it hit any bumps.
