Thanks for the warm welcomes everyone.
Nope I haven't called yet,,,I am still up in the air on this whole Y-pipe thing, whether to order one or make one. Leaning more towards making one out of a stocker. Larry.

Mods planned are very mild. Installing SLP air lid, filter, smooth bellow, throttle body bypass, 160 thermostat, SLP Y-pipe, and thats it really. After it's all on I will take it to a local tuner for a custom tune and then pretty much just leave the car alone.
Found the car here locally, older lady bought it new from a dealer up the street, and the dealer had done all the service on the car since new, so they were very aware of the car and it's condition. It has 59,000 miles on it, so it was driven a fair amount but only summer time driving. It's navy blue metallic, with a black convertable top, charcoal leather interior.
It's an automatic, which I wasn't real fond of, but I can't be too picky on a hard to find covertable SS. She ordered some SLP goodies with it, including the center outlet exhaust with SLP muffler, SS floor mats, and an SS car cover. She also told me she ordered the upgraded tire package from SLP, the dealer told me they take off the goodyears and install BFG KDWS's, sounded strange to me but it is what it is.
As far as the rest of my junk, yes it is all GM for the most part. 72 SS 454 chevelle, 70 Firebird Formula, 88 Iroc, 56 Nomad, 97 Z28 convertable, 79 chevy 1 ton truck, (gotta have a tow vehicle) 82 Jeep scrambler with
LT1/4L60E, 71 454 corvette, another 05 Jeep rubicon as well. I may have to liquidate a couple, plan on moving to Arizona soon, it's going to be a job for sure. I will play around with pictures for sure. I would love to get them all side by side for 1 shot but I don't think I have the room in the driveway for that. I will experiment and see what I can do. Larry.

I'll be happy to drive one to your new house or even tow it
