Re: my 83 camaro




needs new interior work and exterior.............. gas, oil pressure, and temperature gauges need to be fixed
just put two new front speakers into it.....waiting some rear speakers...
planning on painting it some color black with a neon green or a candy green apple on the bottom trim. and the rims painted black with it outlined in green. might put a 383 engine or keep it stocked.
i found a cool looking hood for it but now i cannot find it..
i wana get this hood on it but i have no idea if it will look good on third gens

Re: my 83 camaro

Re: my 83 camaro
well today i've decided to work a lot during the summer so i can start saving for a ss hood. and sell my hood to my freind. but i got a question.. would it be worth it to put a notchback on it?? i think it would look cool plus i need a new rear window.. can't get this ductape crap off my window from the for sale sign
heres what it looks like

Re: my 83 camaro
I would seriously rethink putting a different hood on those cars...take a look at how good those can look:

what you can do with those hoods:

older pic, ignore the 10 dzus fasteners around the perimeter of the hood

Re: my 83 camaro
i feel a bit retarded but if you read the instructions for an air freshener you aren't supposed to remove the packaging completely, just cut the notch so u can hang it up, or else the smell will be overwhelming and most likely cause headaches or death.
