"Camie" 1995 Camaro V6 3.4L
Hi, I am new to the forum. I recently brought a 1995 Camaro. I named her Camie haha. Yea I know it isn't original but I like it. I was looking around for a daily driver since I didn't have a car at the time. And I was gonna get a VW Golf. I am sooooo glad I got a camaro. Soon as I found out about the car I started researching online and came across this forum. And thanks to your guys posts and information and love for camaros and kickass project cars I decided that I wanted a carmaro. I brought her for $1500. She has 128k on her and no major problems I can see. The driver side window doesn't go down but I already order the new window motor lol I been driving around with it for about 4 weeks. And all I see is a small oil leak. I plan on doing lots of mods but I currently live in an apartment and have a limited budget and it is my DD. I just got in white gauges w/ blue EL(http://tinyurl.com/ycko4a2) I plan on put in some HIDs from eurolamps (http://tinyurl.com/yk7c7k6) and a CAI for starters but after reading this forum it make me remember there is always more I can do. And I am excited to get started.
P.S if anyone knows a good experience mechanic in the Lancaster, PA area let me know.

Awesome, another Pennsylvanian! I generally use my bf as my mechanic, he lives in Gettysburg. I try to stay away from shops as much as possible, saves me money, haha.

And you can also get a good exhaust, personally i got a 3.5" magnaflow and its the closest i've ever heard to a V8. Also, would you mind taking some pictures of what those new white and blue dash things you got? i've always been interested in those but i was never sure how it would really look.

Dave's Automotive in Manheim PA. He is the real deal, turning wrenchs flat rate by day and building hot rods at night. I used him several times on jobs that where knuckle busting pains and he never tried to rip me off. Aways charged me the quoted price withing a few bucks and called me when he found issues. No suprises.

There was another in Centerville "BJ's automotive" I think was the name. It was on the Corner of Donnerville rd and Columbia Ave. I can not find anything on the net for them so they may be out of business.
These small shops are a good way to go. Its worth to take your car there enough so they think of you as repeat customer (twice a year). They treat their repeat customs well.

Thanks guys for all the info and I will post pics of the gauges soon as I can get around to putting them in. I got my 1st experience driving a RWD car in the snow lol it was fun slipping and sliding but I got the hang of it now.
