Hey everybody! I was a lifelong Chevy fan until my 08 Chevrolet Silverado was plagued with major problems - all before 100k miles. I traded it in for a new Tundra TRD in 2017. I've been decently happy with it until we collided with a large deer in MI on vacation last summer. The insurance company fixed the truck although it should've been totaled - I've been disgusted with the little issues ever since as it's never been 100% quite right. I've been drooling over the Trail Boss ever since it came out and finally tripped across a the right deal on what I was looking for - a very well optioned low mileage pearl white TB. So far it has a level kit, muffler delete and a few other accessories. Glad I tripped across this forum. I am located in NW Indiana and always up for connecting with other owners. I own a branding agency that wraps vehicles and builds signs. My son and I build and race turbo LS cars, we both own Camaros, you can learn more about us at DadRod Garage on youtube.

Nice 74 Camaro. Too bad it has the cool rear window but the ugly bumpers. Is it a real Z28?
 
Common, you know the 74-77 government mandated bumpers were ugly on everything!
I guess I shouldn't be surprised someone on the internet is pirating my welcome thread into government impact regulations effects on bumpers in the seventies but here we are nonetheless. :ROFLMAO: I simply disagree with you, although hideous on some, impact bumpers were not ugly on everything. There were MANY tasteful adjustments and design revisions by auto manufacturers regardless of the political overreach in an attempt to relieve the strain on insurance companies wallets. 🤑 The anodized aluminum bumpers on the big bumper Camaros are not ugly to everyone. In fact I have an affinity for the one year only Camaro including the Firebird, Corvette and others... :cool:

I appreciate the warm welcome! :p

Nice. I'm giving you grief, but I'm also an F body guy. I currently have an 85 IROC in one year only silver with red interior with 49K miles and a 2002 Camaro SS M6 that I bought new in July of 2002.
