    Looks clean! Any plans for the 4th gen or any mods to her so far? What’s the difference between the eurospec and American/Canadian versions?

        The difference between a euro spec and US spec is the Leather interior from the Pontiac,headlamps configured to dip to the left,head unit with a wider FM band and rear bumper re moulded to allow Euro size plates and twin fog lights. Click image for larger version

          No mods on this one,I bought a mistake two years ago and so the spend on getting her sorted is currently running at a loss....I'm going to keep her completely stock until the prices rise on this side of the pond.

            Looks great, I like the rear bumper, something different.

                When the prices catch up with what I've spent I will probaly sell her on as I'm near retirement and am currently building my retirement car that will tow a van/trailer or in UK speak a Caravan.My 2nd Gen is a keeper but fuel happy at 14 to 20 mpg.....Could just hang to the 4th Gen though,we'll see.

                  14-20 isn’t so bad- my Jeep was 10-12mpg.

                  Any pics of the 2nd gen? What’s done to that one?

                        Its nice to see American muscle over in England. I grew up there at R.A.F. Chicksands near a small town called Hitchin. I remember the car culture there as a small group but making efforts to make the Mini's look the part with a set of Mini-light wheesl,Lucas fog lights and fender flares.Lots TR6 Triumph's, Lotus Europa's and MG's. My high school car was a 72' Lotus Europa black on black. My dad purchased the Lotus and couldn't get out of it so he threw me the key's...it was very embarrassing to have the large red "L" on it. But hey I still enjoyed the car.
                        I miss England very much and learned how to play classical guitar,piano and the violin there. My teacher was a professor at University at Luton, he and I remained good friends until he passed, one Christmas I gave him a new Martin guitar which he had wanted forever, he deserved it so much. He was my mentor and my best friend. I also saw several races at Brands Hatch and saw Graham Hill in one his last races.( I am old now :rollseyes:
                        Keep the 4th gen Camaro, its a great looking ride.
