Default 19 years of waiting

Well it took me 19 years but i finally had me dream come true. Since i was 8 years old all i can remember was seeing the walls plastered with hot rod magazine and well u name it if it had a camaro in it. the ride i got when 14 in the camaro interceptor police car driven by my dads friend dident hurt either. ..( I wasent in trouble) Well i finally got my camaro Its a 1996 RS convertable. Has the 3.8L in it. Sure I have always wanted the SS but its a Camaro!!!!! I have made this my new one and only hobby. Found out today that she has some problems but thats ok I do too and well nobody is perfect. All i want to do is open the hood and start wrenching. i have a long ways to go however. Other than changing the lights and a few other things ive never worked on a car before (Lots of mechanics in my family). the wife bought me bout 400 in craftsman tools and well off i go.

been here for bout 3-4 days now and i gotta say this is the most friendliest andprolly the most knowlegble forum i have found. Thank you all for helpin a newb and someone who is in the begining stages of learning. look forward to talking to you all
