MY CAR IS A 3800 SERIES II!!! I don't have that horrible 3.4 like all the other 95 v6 fbodies had.
It would mean a lot to me if you could sign my guestbook, thanks! I'll make sure to give you a shout back
Hey, 18 years old, and I bought this car all myself on April 30th/2006. My parents didn't buy it for me. I did it, just flipping burgers. There's a long story towards this purchase which is kind of inspiring in a way, but I'll sum it up by just saying I busted my ass to buy this car, and it's mine. No one elses, just mine.
I was originally saving for a third gen (82-92) fbody, I never thought a 4th gen was attainable, I guess it is? If I can do it, anyone can. If you want a certain car bad enough, it's possible, trust me on that one.
The only mods done to my car when I bought it was a flowmaster "American Thunder" cat-back / headers. Now the list reads...
-Flowmaster catback
-Cat delete
-TransGo shiftkit
-Corvette servo
-SLP Cold air intake
-Pacesetter Headers
TO DO LIST:
-Abbot racing N/A cam + tune
I am keeping this car. My eventual goal is to buy a 98+ Trans Am and keep this car. Why have one cool car when you can have two? :D

Here's a few pictures from the day I bought it. May 30th, Wednesday, 2006.
I brought it to school right after buying it. I got A LOT of attention, it shocked me! I decided to park on an angle and take up two spots since I had a giant parking lot to park in, and so I can see who is approaching it from every possible angle. I came out to my car later to see a guy who owns a Mustang thought it'd be ironic/funny to do the same thing
I thought it was pretty cool/funny
While I was taking pictures, I decided to take an interior shot
Later on that day, I decided to go to the gym, then I decided to take a few new pictures.

June 3rd, 2006: Before heading off to a track meeting, I decided to go to a car wash first. I don't like the wax their wash uses, and I don't think I'm going to go to an automated car wash again with my car
------------
June 4th, 2006: It's been raining all day... Luckily, it momentarily stopped, which gave me a quick opportunity to vacuum my car. As soon as I put the last car mat back in my car, it started raining again, talk about luck!

June 11th 2006: I had all the vinyl in my interior cleaned on Friday. It took me about an hour, but all the vinyl looks new. There's still a few scratches in the vinyl, nothing big, but I wish I knew how to get rid of it. This was Friday(9th).
Today, after a trip home from New Glasgow, It was still raining. I got sick of the rain enough, that I decided to just clean it in the rain. It turned out pretty good. I used a new cleaner I got from Wal-Mart (A big bag of cleaners for $9!)
Here are the pictures:
Until I make a few changes with my car, I won't be updating with new pictures for a while!

June 25th, 2006: I bought polish two days ago, and tested it out in the parking lot at Wal-Mart, just on my spoiler, looked pretty good. I used the polish known as "Nu-Finish" I paid about $11 out the door, and I'm happy with the results. I want to get some Zaino next month! Not only did I do my car, but I did my parent's Impala. It was bugging me that they were neglecting to clean their car, so I had to step in!
Here's what the Impala looks like now:

Much better, you think?
