I didn't take very many pictures, I was busy.

Powder coating! Yes, we have that now.

Kicking off Saturday night the right way (shot glasses because that's what we had on hand)
Image

Rain or shine, the bonfire wasn't going to be stopped!
Image

Image

The next day, at the keg, I guess there was some traffic :lol:
Image

Then I finally got motivated to start a project on the Camaro!

Ben, your new avatar is sweet!

Was gonna mention the YouTube channel. Definitely go watch some of those videos. I felt like the court jester with Matt in that grassy field making everyone laugh... One of the best vids on there is watching Kyle's face transform as the One Chip Challenge dragged on. lol

Imgur seems the easiest now that PB is dead.

Not much from me since there were plenty of cameras floating around. Just want to take thanks again to Matt for providing the venue to host our debauchery. Lmfao

Ryan and Jerry worked together to take some sweet pics, this one really came out great though.
Image

The crowd around the fire. As was said above, the rain couldn't stop our inferno.
Image

Fire with Ryan for scale... Lol
Image

The S2000 was like a ride at a carnival fair... Glad Matt lives in a secluded area. It was 0-100-0 and back. I only burned .2 quarts of oil on the entire trip, bahaha!

I have a bunch more stuff to post... but using the forum on a phone is a pain in the dick x28,000,000 (honestly the only reason I'm hardly ever here) so it'll take a bit :-/

That’s Austin’s (Zeik75) 1988 LE with an intercooled series 2 swap. It sure gets a lot of attention!

He drove that all the way from Nebraska to Michigan.

So, I got really sick once I got back home. I'm at work now, fighting head congestion, but I might be able to get what's on my phone uploaded today. Left my SD card at home (although I didn't use my camera much this time), so I'll do half today and possibly the other half tomorrow.

Might have a couple videos, too, but don't remember.

Thanks, I was a little worried about the color since I didn’t get samples. They came out almost perfect though.

Blue G8 belongs to Matt’s brother Mark. His girlfriend has a white V6 G8 too. At one point we had more Holdens than Bonnevilles.
