Hey everyone i just signed up for this forum. been looking at it and reading for a while. i have been restoring my 88 camaro i have had since i was 15. im not doing the body work i never did that before so im letting aguy do the paint and body. im leaving the stock style suspension but it is all Spohn Chromoly parts, ford 9in rear, am going with rack and pinion steering. the body work is almost done. i am currently a civilian over in Iraq/ Afghanistan so im getting the body stuff done now. NORMALLY i build my own engines but i found a guy to build me my engine AND a custom set of stainless steel headers for cheaper then i can even buy the parts for. so im buying an engine also. Im trying to keep it streetable and a MONSTER at the same time. i wanted a 1000hp street car so im putting in a 632 BBC with a 300 fogger system on it. the guy says on pump gas the engine should make between 850-900hp so like i said i wanted that 1000hp. but the car is being painted the 2011 Camaro Synergy Green with pearl white racing stripes. i have a bunch of pictures but i dont know how to attach them to this post. but this is really just a thread to say Hello and if i can get a few pointers on how to start adding pictures to the thread i will do that. thank you in advance for any help you can give

 

Im trying this i think i figured out how to attach ill show you some progress pictures of the car

 

Here are some of the before paint pictures

 

and here is a few of how it stands now. the engine is not built yet i will be driving down to tennessee to pick it up in Feb when im home for a month before going back to Afghanistan. but here is a few more ill add more later

 

WOW nice ride. that should scare the cr@p outta somebody

 

thank you very much. yeah i hope it will scare the crap out of me too!!! haha it sure will be nice to get it done but im only home for a month then back to afghanistan then i will get a 3 week vacation at 6 months of deployment. but after this next year i will not be working over there anymore it will be time for me to come back and get this car finished!! i think i ordered EVERY Spohn performance product for this thing too its already sitting at the house waiting for me now

 

That sounds like it is going to be a beast of a car! Congrats on the build and thank you for risking your life for us!
