Here are my Updates and Newer pics from this summer.

Heres the best pic I could find with the new rocker stripes and the IROC-SS door decals. I installed the hood pins earlier that day

This is a pic from a local car show where I won 2nd place. I was pretty proud and surprised considering what I had to compete with in my class and who won 1st did NOT surprise me! generalryan's 1988 Chevrolet Camaro

Here are some pics with a friends Civic and my brother's RSX. I know alot of people who are into the Import scene. I guess I'm the outcast in the gang considering my friend's interests and mine are 180* differance. Who cares though right? Everyone has an opinion and different interests, I like what I like and thats PURE V8 Muscle. If it doesn't growl and burble and smoke the rear tires I don't get excited. Generally though my friends are goodabout it not going off about their machines and egg me on or piss me off, which make them good friends I guess. What I get a kick out of is that they still repect what it is and I have even offered some of my closer friends to drive the Camaro and they decline because they say Its too much car for them and the fact its rear wheel drive scares the s**t out of them. I respect that and what they have created as well, after all, were all in it for the same satisfaction and reason. To Have fun, Cruise and enjoy the fruits of our time and labor!

The guy who owns the blue civic paints his car himself every spring, he changes his mind alot. He will be the one repainting the Camaro for me.
The group pics above are after a recent car show, we pulled into this lot in line and one by one they thought a burnout would be cool, well after they spun their front tires I pull in and burp the throttle a couple times and ended up doing a donut and then some. Heres a pic of the result generalryan's 1988 Chevrolet Camaro

These pics are at another friend's place His name is Gerry and owns his own car custumizing shop. He named it "CRAPPY CAR CUSTUMS". Don't ask my why I didn't name it, I think it started as a joke and really everyone just stuck it to him so he made it official. Not my 1st choice but the work he does is not crappy by any means. I guess its as they say when "Whats in a name?". Gerry is the Guy who does all my work, the kind of work I don't want to do or don't have the hoist or tools to do it with. Most of the time I'm either too busy or don't feel like it to do myself so I call Gerry. I work alot and in my off time on weeekends and after working every other Saturday also there isn't much time considering I have to also spend time with my wife and daughter too!
Wait a minute you say, 23yrs old with a wife and daughter? Yep, we've been together 6yrs now and my daughter is almost 5. I guess my life is hecktic without workin on the cars and probably spent too much time on them sometimes.
Anyway, The pics of Gerry's place are when he asked me to take some shots for his business card and I took a bunch for differant settings and ideas. I was flattered when he asked me to do it, after all my picture will help promote his rapidly growing business. Photography is another hobby of mine and enjoy mostly takin artsy car pics once in a while (go figure, combining something like that). In the very near future, I want to make my own car calander with all the Muscle cars guys I know. Anyway, back about Gerry, a while ago he went to Toronto with the trailer(enclosed) to to pick up a customers truck to do over the winter and Toronto is 3hours away from us. Amazing, and Gerry is a year younger than me. By day he works at his dad's Heavy Duty machine repair shop and after 5 and weekends he's at his shop. So he's even busier than me, by a longshot too. Oh yeah, That Orange Chevette on the previous page, thats Gerry's car HE built.

Heres 3 burnout patches to prove I do DRIVE the Camaro. The first 2 pics are from a back road

generalryan's 1988 Chevrolet Camaro and the 2nd pic is before I put new tires on it I put a bottle of Quaker state on the tires and road for some more smoke and distance. UMMM, it worked

generalryan's 1988 Chevrolet Camaro


this pic is at the drive-thru at Mcdonald's. I know eveyone who works there because I worked there when I was 16-19, and all I worked with are now a little higher up and some have moved on but some haven't. At this time the manager workin that night asked me to do it and there was so much smoke it poured in hte drive-thru window and started filling the restaurant. Good thing it was late and the place was mostly empty.

Here is one of my favorite pics. This was one of the business card pics I orchestrated. I decided for fun since Gerry wanted my car and my brother's car for the card that I would ,stick Gerry's dad's 37 chev coupe and his own jumpin' S10 truck with air bag suspension to demonstrate the wide range of expertise he can build and all types he can work on. Anyway, The pic consists of all of us standing beside our pride and joy. You see Me beside the IROC, to the right of me is my brother(Brad)with his 02 Acura RSX, to his right is Gerry's dad with his 37 coupe, and in front is Gerry with his S10.

COMING SOON, pics of the old rear tires being taken off the fun way.
