Thought it was about time I sit down and start a build sheet on my 2012 Camaro SS/RS. I purchased the car from a gent who had it for sale on the C5 forum. The car was located in Texas and my brother (freakyfastfreddie) was on a business trip down in Dallas so I asked if he would take a look at it. He did, gave me the thumbs up, and that was all I needed to pull the trigger. The brother and I flew down to Dallas from central Illinois, picked the car up and had a nice road trip driving it back. Picked the car up 5-19-14 and had 750 miles on it. Doubled that driving it back. So below is an account of what has been done on the car so far. There are still some things that I will be looking to add to the car but this is where I am, at this point.
Big Kudos to Pete Petruzzelli @ Showstopper for the exterior/engine paint and accessories. Fred said that if I wanted it done right, Pete was the guy to do it. I think he has done an amazing job on the car.
