I've posted in here before, but figured I'd say "wave" to the Corvallis folks. That's where my SS resides.

Im John, Im 22. Been on this site for about 8 -10 months. Just picked mine up this weekend and figured Id join.

Drove 6.5 hours sunday to pick up my dream car.
















Some bad camera phone pictures








2000 FRC black on black. Loaded with HUD

Came with some goodies too

Blackwing Intake
Borla Catback
4 new eagle f1 tires
new rotors and pads all around
new clutch

stereo system

Got it from the original owner. Carfax shows oil changes every 3,000-4,000 miles at the dealer as well as 2 FULL pages of maintenance. oil, fuel pump, fuel filter, alignment, a/c, brake, trans, and rear diff fluid, etc.

Next on the list is

Kooks long tube headers
Fast 90/90

Car is amazing to drive. Got 32.8 mph coming home with the cruise at 75. it was turning about 1700 rpms in 6th. The torque is amazing.

Should be a couple in my profile. The ****** went to Australia last summer, got tired of dumping $$ into it for 12yrs. Look under 1940 ****** drag car on youtube and go to the bottom of the page. Sound doesn't do it justice but still sounds ok. I haven't been on this site in awhile either.
