About “Black Bomber”
OK, so it's my brother's. But I drive more than he does since he became an over-the-road trucker. Not that I'm complaining.
About “The SS”
I bought this gem in 2001 just after i was in a very bad industrial accident, the camaro SS has always been my dream car ever since i laid eyes on one while driving past a dealership in 1996. My father set out on the hunt to track one down for me when i left for the marines in july of 1999. we decided to buy a brand new 2000 SS but my dad fell inlove with it and kept it for himself, later trading it in on a 02 LE SS (red with the stripes, not just an 02 that most people claim to be anniversary cars) but on the way home from the hospital my dad and i drove past this car sitting at a local dealership! we went and looked at it just a couple days later, and bought it imidiatly after car #0594 was mine!(i paid for it not my dad) after my purchase i installed 4.11 gears, a nitrous kit, and all sorts of goodies. i then blew it up in 03, put a new motor in it in 05 with the GM847 cam and a few other tricks. i then spun a rod, it is now getting a 355 built for it and will retain the nitrous kit, and the big ass cam! this car is truely a looker expecialy with the LS1 eibach sportlines (ls1 springs makes the car sit lower than the LT1 springs)and the agresive look of a true SS car! the car handles on rails and goes like a bat out of hell on the 1320! in 07 come getsome!
