Best Present Ever
Well this is my first post of many. My wife and I decided to do our christmas early since the next two days will be so busy. When she told me that my present was at my parents house it threw me for a loop. When we got there this is what was waiting for me.

I drove a 1979 vette when I was in high school and I always wanted another one. This thing sounds like a beast. I'm not sure what mods it has but it does have dynatech headers and a vortec cai. It's a 2001 with 27000 miles on it. The streets are all wet here in Houston so I didn't want to drive it much tonight but man I am stoked! I can't wait to clean it up and take more pictures

Thanks for all the compliments guys, I definately love the color on the car. She actually drove it home about 45 minutes away from where she bought it. She said she was worried something was wrong with it because it was so loud, lol.

haha, I was wondering why no one elses car had those on them. I wasn't sold on them when I first saw them. I think I will be removing those. Thanks for the compliments, and the criticism!

Wow! That is one killer present. You can tell your wife from all of us, we think that is probably the best present any of us could ask for. Congrats on the new toy and bring more pics.
