My first camaro

ive been picky about where to go to take some pictures so what i have for everyone is a video. i gave it a full 360 then showed some interior and then ran it for a minute.

although my dream car is a delorean ive been wanting a 3rd gen camaro for a long time. im the third owner of the car and it only has 63k on it. its never seen a winter and has had a new paint job done. it has a few issues that i have no problem fixing on my own. the most obvious being it doesnt have tailpipes. the rear end grinds a bit and the car will go into shaking/convulsions at cruising speed. i was told it was the drivers side bearing but ill be ordering new axles with bearings and doing both sides. ive already fixed a couple little things like a stuck temp gauge, reverse lights adjustment, and a headlight out.

couple things about myself, im an avid gamer, love video editing, and i have a strange obsession with very old, dirty, and rusty things. especially cars. ratrods are some of the coolest looking cars to me. they just have so much character. i want to incorporate a warmachine kind of theme to my camaro with options. i do not want to take it apart, damage, or mutilate the body or paint in any way. i saw a picture of a camaro done Deathrace style and it was amazing to me. even though i think it looks cool im not that cruel to ruin a new paint job. ill find a happy median. ill put some pictures up when i find a good spot for it.

you guys have some cool smilies

Re: My first camaro

Hey do you have wheel spacers on that? If not you may want to check to see if you will need them. When I first got mine it had aftermarket wheels with no spacers and I never figured out what it was till after I got rid of my wheels.

Re: My first camaro

im not too sure if it has spacers or not. ill be replacing the rear tires soon though. im starting to think the rear end is whats making the grinding cuz it gets louder as you accelerate. new muffler and tailpipes tomaro. then a full tuneup.
