This is my 2001 Camaro SS. I purchased this car back in August 2005. It was totally stock when I purchased it from CarMax. It had 32,000 miles on the odometer. I had planned on just driving it BUT as always I couldn't just do that. I have been playing with cars since I was 16. I started out with a Chevelle and then a 69 GTO. I've been hooked ever since...

Body Notes: The overall body still remains stock. However, I did do some minor "enhancements" as listed above. I painted the striping at a friend's body shop. The stripes and wheels are painted a GM color called" Moonstone Gray". It looks almost pewter in color. I also removed the entire front clip so I could paint the engine compartment a semi-gloss black. (old-school theme) Once that was painted I install the new 402 and reassembled everything back together. I do have some ideas for some body changes in the future. Maybe widen the quarter panels and some other race-inspired changes...

Interior
� Black Leather Seats with �Hound�s Tooth� Inserts � Retro to 69 Camaro�s

Interior Notes: The interior was tan when I purchased the car originally. I converted it over to black after I had installed the engine. I wanted the 69 retro look with the hounds tooth interior. I had the seats recovered by a professional shop here in Charlotte. They are covered completely in leather with cloth hounds tooth material in the center. I got the black interior panels out of a 2001 Trans Am and I got NEW black door panels and had the hounds tooth insert in the bottom of the door panel where the carpet was installed.
