Default New kid on the block...

Hey everyone, figured I would make a post here introducing myself. I'm the proud owner of an '03 Monte Carlo SS. Just bought it last week with a little under 67k miles on it for just under $10k. Good buy, in my opinion. It rides awesome, sounds decent, and looks amazing. I plan on doing a lot of work to it once summer hits to make it faster and look better. I'm living out here in Washington state, about 2 hours north of Seattle, serving in the Navy, so if anyone knows of any good shops out this way, definatly let me know. I'll be around these forums quite a bit. I have been reading a lot about what other people have done to their cars and it's giving me a lot of great ideas about what I am going to want to do to mine. I'll probably be asking a bunch of questions here in the future, because it seems everyone else's knowledge on these cars exceeds mine.
