#168 Met A Great Uncle Camaro. This Forum Rules
Thanks to all in this forum, especially Fbodfather and Becky who kept us informed and educated on our cars and the order process. My 2013 is home after a 10 month wait. Actually I took a photo of the 2006 concept 5th gen and put it by my desk and used it as inspiration. I also took a centerfold of Mark Steilow Red pro touring from the same year and started my quest. The 69 took up the first 6 years of the journey and the rollover pushed me to get it finished this spring. I put off my 5th gen. order knowing "hoping" a Z28 or such would come. (not to mention the income). Well it did and i have it and without a doubt it is nasty. It gets to 80 real quick while shifting at 4000 rpm. I dont know which is faster, that FI 406 wth an overdrive is something in a light 69 car, but I know which one is scarier. Thank you Cadillac for developing this new suspension! My 14 yr old says the new one makes the old one look sad, I think the 7 yr trek building it keeps me from ever thinking that. I do know that I am a blessed man with an understanding wife.( Instead of 401k I have 401Z and 401ss) I will keep you posted on any interactions the two cars have because I loved the Steilow video this week. Keep up the good work chevy!!
