That's a beautiful F-bod, Marty. I hope you kept the HRE wheels! They won't fit your new ride perfectly, but are worth practically zip on a trade.
My previous ride was a slightly modded '01 Cobra. I only had it two years, and made the mistake of driving a C5. Ended up costing me a bundle of cash, and after 8 yrs., no end in sight.:lol:

Immediately before my Z, I had a 99 Mag Red C5, sold it with 115,000 miles on her. The pic below was the one in the for sale ad. Before that, I had numerous cars, 4 of which were f-bodies. 3 LS1's and 1 LT1. I love my muscle cars.

P.S. Marty Mar, that is a DAMN good looking SS you had.

I remember racing against RX2's, back in my ITA racing days. The hot ticket was to use the old IMSA cases with the trick ports. Man, those cars would get off the turns like a bullet.. It was cheating, so I had to cheat more too.....
