:lol: :lol: :lol: Well I didn't proceed to mess mine up but I could have. LOL If I would have hit it and stomped on that old piece of junk camaro I'd have nothing left LOL. I believe this car was the sourist vehicle I have ever bought but I was in a hurry and ready to get a diff. vehicle and look where it got me. I really need to work on my patience skills I guess. And I believe this year in Metal Trades might just do it!!! :lol: :lol:
