I am in the military deployed to Afhanistan. I recently bought a pro touring 68 SS Camaro. I only have a few things want to improve on it. Some new auto meter gauges and a retro fit A/C. Looking forward to coming home and driving it along with my Big Dog K9 Chopper.

Welcome to LG. I'm sure you'll find plenty of ways to spend that deployment cash around here. Post up some pictures of the 69SS you bought when you can. I know how the internet is there so no rush.

Stay fast and stay low!

:cheers:

Welcome! I lived in Crestview until last year (retired out of Hurlburt) and will be moving back in two years. There are several board members in the area. Great looking car and bike! Post up some details of it.

The car is crazy clean! I see what you're saying about needing the autometer gauges.

You should meetup with Chris (130fe) great buy and easy to hang with.

I'm located about 3 hours northeast of Destin area. Full service shop and dealer, that offers military discounts for you guys serving and retired. I am down that way a good bit due to us having a place in Miramar. Anything you need please let me know and I will help you out

Thanks for your service and stay safe over there
