Well as most of you know, I will be selling the camaro to help restore/modify this car. I found a pic of my car on the internet from a GTO website that I took when I first bought the car.



Still was green with the whitewalls/hubcaps!!! lol In case you haven't seen the updated pics, here are some:



My plans for this car are:

Body: GTO nose (fenders, hood, front bumper, valance panel), Vynal Top and side trim removed, new 1/4 panels, and a Judge spoiler.

Interior: I want to replace the bench seat with buckets and a floor shifter (dual gate) Other than that, the interiors pretty good shape.

Engine/Trans/Rear End: A 550 HP SBC 377 (destoked 400, forged crank, eagle rods, ARP bolts, Keith Black flattop pistons, .575 roller cam, Brodix Track 8 aluminum heads, Victor Jr Intake, Holley double pumper carb) for the engine. The tranny will be a built TH400 with a aprox 3500 stall convertor. The rear end will be a 9-inch with 4.56 gears, a spool, and strange axles. Exhaust will be dual 3-inch.

I hope to have this done sometime next year. But more than likely by late 2003-early 2004. Its been my baby ever since I got her at 17 yrs old so its about time she gets restored.

 

that car is gonna look sweet when it is all done but i really don't want to see the camaro go.it is such a good looking 3rd gen.i wish there was a way to keep you from selling it but ya gotta do what needs to be done to finish your other project car.i am sure i will like this one as much as i like the camaro though.

 

Yeah, I don't know. If I dont end up selling it. I may just put it in storage until I am satisfied with my Pontiacs. But thanks for the compliments. BTW you still owe me a ride in yours!!!

 

Dude. No spool. Seriously. Bad Idea.

 

Yeah, I think you talked me out of a spool, but I will put a posi in there...and some other stuff also

 

Sure, just when you get some nice wheels on the Camaro, you up and sell it

Oh well, you have a lot more of an original car in the GTO, as we all know there's not much of a shortage of 3rd Gens.
How many GTO's do you see a day on the road?

See you Peoria guys on the 24th right?
Maybe on the 2nd at Cordova too.......

 

Yeah, always another Third Gen out there. The Pontiac gets tons of attention and i always have people ask me about it.

Hey, about the rims-I still owe you $25. I'll bring it to the meeting. I should go the 2nd too.
