...I looked far and wide for a good quality steel 2 1/2 pound fire extinguisher that didn't cost close to $50.00. Finally ordered on through the local fire extinguisher recharge company for $29.00, and mounted it to my roll bar between the driver and passenger seat. Also mounted a seat belt cutter and a window punch within close proximity...I can easily reach them all from the driver's position...

Yea, but that armor piercing point at the top of yours should work

I did NGKTR55s/Taylor wires, as well as SLP bolt on SFC's. On order: Corvette Oil Filler Cap/Corvette Mobil 1 sticker(adds 5HP!)

But, 01 SunsetOrange, after seeing your sig, I just decided what's next:
Sway Bars!! Why didn't I do that yet

I'll prolly go with Hotchkis.
Cool! Something to look forward to!

does a vanilla air freshener count?
 
Posted by 01SunsetOrangeSS (Member # 846) on :
 
No air fresheners are not mods, unless you haven't bathed in a few weeks. Then they are permissable mods. LOL

I just ordered POR 15 paint for the rear end and axle along with other rusty suspension parts. Also ordered a small can of POR 15 gray to try an area on the garrage floor. If it works out well, I will paint the whole floor.

On the Z06 I have a billet aluminum coolant cover and a billet aluminim shift knob with Z06 on the top.

Dan,
The POR will be spendy to do the whole garage. We're going with some aircraft hangar paint from the local Mson's supply. It'll cost <$500 to do our whole garage (approx 2000 sq. ft.).

The hanger paint is awsome stuff. It's epoxy based and dries smooth, hard and shiny. Only down side is that it's slippery when wet.

Just ordered from myself a set of TRUE HID lights for my car. They are really sweet looking and not too expensive at $600 a set.

Just ordered 2001 LS6 heads and cam to complete my LS6 conversion on my car. That should provide me with about a total of 385 RWHP. That should be enough to shut up my friend with his Ford Lightening. Last mod will be a
Progcharger with about 8lbs boost. That should finally bring me to about 450 RWHP.I'm sure at that point I'll need a 12 bolt Moser rear end. Boy it's a good thing I own an aftermarket performance company.
