Lil' Red

[10nix]

So I got her on October 11th, 2012, and have been loving every minute of it. Over the past year or so, I have made a couple of modifications, but before I get to that, I have to say that I owe this forum a debt of gratitude. I have been lurking here for years now, and there is very little that I have done to the car that did not originate here. Thank you.

(At some point I am going to wash her up, and have a photo shoot)

So, here is a list of what was done to the exterior:
Front Lip
Hood "bug catcher"
ham license plates
under grill fog lamps
Hella Supertone horns,
HID Projector Headlights
Morimoto 3Five Ballasts
5000k xenon bulbs
Plastidip black wing, tires, and hatch "strip"
Comet SBB-5 antenna attached to the hatch with a lip mount.

Red painted rear drums and front calipers

Carbon fiber (sticker) bowties

1960's Chevy "V" crossed flags (Which I previously incorrectly referred to as " '64 Camaro flags ")

Sweet-ass Sonic the Hedgehog sticker

Moving to the interior Modifications:

2nd battery bank on a West Mountain ISOPWR isolator
2x 20 watt solar panels with trickle charger to 2nd battery bank
Momo shift knob
Ultragauge
DDMworks shifter bushings
Chevy Pedal covers
Kenwood TM-V71A dual band, dual receive transceiver Head unit in cabin, body in trunk.
Dash mount speaker for Kenwood
Alpine KTP-445U amplifier
4x Rockford Fosgate Punch speakers
165 watt powered sub

An then there were a couple of things under the hood...

DDMworks cold air intake
Forge recirculating bypass valve
Trifecta budget tune
ZZP Catback exhaust
ZZP Drilled and slotted rotors
Hawk Pads
DDMworks rear brace

And The Cooper CS4 Touring tires...

'64 camaro flags?

Looks like 'Vette to me. I had 'Vette flags on my HHR.

Nice fog lights!!

'64 camaro flags?

They were originally on the Corvette, the Camaro, the Impala, and the Malibu to indicate that the engine was a V-block. Later iterations of the logo became the Corvette flags.

To my knowledge the camaro did not exist in '64.......

The flag in the middle is the camaros the outside is used on the vette

Oh... Right you are. My bad. I think that emblem came out in 1964 (maybe 1963?) and was used on the Corvette, the Impala, the Malibu, and others. Later it was used on the Camaro which is where I knew it from, but yeah, no '64 Camaro. Good catch. I edited the post to correct my mistake.

On a mildly interesting note, I think that the "outside" flags were later reversed and became the Corvette logo.
