It's a dark blue. Slick said its a blue-black metallic, or something like that. It's the same blue they used on some GPs.
TBat, oogle all you want, thats why she looks so good, to catch attention. It just so happens that I'll be the one driving her, but all eyes, including from LEOs, are on HER.
No, the last 4th Gen was in 02 or 03, something like that.
Thank you all for the props, I'm sure happy with her.

Looks good man, awesome color!
and BTW. F-bodies rand from 1967-2002
Model years breakdown as such:
1967-1969
1970-1981
1982-1992
1993-2002 <-- This actually sub-divides. into this:
1993-1997
1998-2002
Differences were engines/appearence. Otherwie they were the same basic chassis.
Ricks is a 4TH Gen. Vers. 2. And a damn nice one at that.

Thanks, Shaker. Hopefully I'll have another Saturday off in a couple weeks. If weather holds out, I'll wash, detail, and shoot both cars.
LOVE this car. For someone as short as I am, it almost feels like I'm staring at the instrument cluster and not out the windshield. I most certainly will be raising the drivers seat some kinda way.
This thing will get loose in the wet stuff in a HEARTBEAT! Figuring out how to launch in second is a bit of a challenge, and I somehow or another got a decent launch in THIRD! How'd that happen?
The seats are MUCH more comfy than I woulda imagined, the radio is LOUD and clear.
Suspension is surprisingly comfy. Chassis, surprise, is STIFF!!! Shianne will shark around pretty much ANYTHING.
LOVE THIS CAR!!!

you should come cruisin' sometime... I found this nice little route to the north of me that is quiet and I had fun with just me, diva, and the road. I need to change it up just a little next time I go out though. Plan is FM1774 north through plantersville up to FM149 and loop back around southward back to tomball. ...or something including that up to around Hwy6 and down to FM1488.

That is a real nice cruise. From the farm, I drive through Plantersville and Magnolia. Did you drive through Anderson or did you make a 3/4 right u-turn just before Anderson? Either way, you were REAL close to the farm where we were staying when I first got here to East Texas.
I know, you can head up this way, and we'll cruise through Davy Crocket National Forest, through Crocket, Nacogdoches, Lufkin, back to the house, have dinner, you can rack out in the house, then get you back to Tomball for church or something.
After all the drives I done made to your house, John...I'll leave it there, man. I'll leave it there. *sniff*
LOL, jk, dude. We'll hafta arrange a cruise day, though. That would be kinda cool. Too bad Shianne would SMOKE Diva. *nudge, nudge*

Shianne's gonna have a hard time making the little Diva sweat... lol... We'll see what happens... A drive up towards Lufkin isn't out of the question, just have to let me know when you're off.

LOL, you mean IF I'm off. Looks like USAREC is gonna start giving us Saturdays off, so I MIGHT start having normal Army weekends again. I will most certainly letcha know, man. I'm sure my daughter will more than welcome you to the house. BTW: I think she mentioned your name again.

heh... There are days I'm glad that I have a ton of friends with kids. I can get to play with them until they get cranky and then I can hand them back and not have to worry about it. :p
Saturdays off? WOW....

Thanks, Mike. When you comin out for a visit? Those three cars would look GREAT parked next to one another...
and dont forget the blocks on the pedals, too, man. Need those in the worst way.
