Been awhile
 
Hey guys. Still dont know all of you that well. In any case life has been seriously hectic the last few months and havnt had any time for my hobbies. Things are settling down now so i guess ill be back to posting again.

Just moved into a new apartment in Bourne. Have a baby due November 20th. A new job as a mechanic at a small shop. And a new car.

I scrapped the white camaro not long after finding out my fiance was pregnant. I needed a reliable car not a project. I ended up selling it for $700 all torn apart and rusted. Bought as 2000 Monte Carlo and loved it for a while until someone offered me too much to refuse. I ended up buying this:

It has an SLP package that no one seems to know much about. Seems to include the stripes, z28 exhaust, and not sure what else. Says Ultra Z on it and has an RS emblem on the dash. Decided to go with a 3.8 because ive owned 2 before this and know so much about them. Its my daily and didnt want anything too crazy since my son is going to be in the back seat. Im extremely happy with it. 120k miles and almost no rust underneath. Pretty sure this thing has never touched snow. Its immaculate. Its insured but i still need to register it. Doing that friday.

I never herd of one myself. I thought the guy selling it was full of crap untill i saw the door jam sticker. This is the only real decent source of info on them. They are rare, only a few hundred made.
