My 80 Camaro.

Well I brought my Camaro home a little while ago. I bought it from a friend that did a pretty good job on starting it. there are a few issues naturally but those will get worked out as we go through and discover what kind of adventure we're on.
The car features a complete rebuild pretty much from the ground up.

Just prior to a few touch ups and in need of new side signal light lenses.

Loaded up
Now,loading this car up had it's challenges. The rear wheels were too wide to fit past the trailer's fenders so we cinched it up and drove home with it like this. I'll mention now that the truck we pulled it with averaged 22.5 mpg on the way home.

Small BLock Chevrolet
The small block is a 350 featuring 1970 angle plug heads that are polished and ported to 294 cc's,stainless steel valves with 300 lb springs with roller rockers. An Edelrock Performer RPM kit tops off the motor. A billet distributor with an MSD ignition fire the plugs.
The transmission is a 200R 4 speed automatic with a B&M shit kit and a B&M Hammer shifter to switch gears.

Camaro parked for the winter



Doesn't look too bad all tucked in for the winter there's enough room to get the things done that it needs so it's going to work out just nicely!
