This is my 97 Camaro that I purchased when I was 15. I've done pretty much all the work myself to it until I'd come to a bump in the road, and I'd have to get my father to help me fix some mistake that I made in my attempt to complete what ever project I had started. (ie, how to paint a car, ect.) I have, for the most part, my life savings in this car. I'll tell you, though, now that I can take this car to the mainstream carshows around Texas, all the hard work has finally paid off.

As for myself, I'm 21 now and I attend Texas A&M where I'm a senior in the Corps of Cadets.

Please leave me a comment, because, like most enthusists, I love getting feedback from others about what they think.

As for this page, I have it set up to show you where I started, how it looked after my paint job, after adding a few additional things such as rims, then after the 35th Anniversary stripes.

This is a before and after picture from when I first bought it, right after the paint job and followed up by the stripes.

Before & after.
For those that have asked, that was a 30th anniversary decal that I had around the emblem when the car was green.

I've ended up placing 1st at Heat Wave in the '93 Camaro and Up class for two years in a row now.

I don't think I have any pictures from this show, but luckily I found this one on Cardomains events page.
