Finally had a chance today to install my Z06 Replica wheels and also washed it...of course Im hearing thunder in the distance but anyways, here are some pictures my friend took of my car after I washed it...

17x9.5s with 275/40r17 tires in the front and 18x10.50s with 315/30r18s in the rear (I need some rear tires if anyone has some)





Somewhere in the cloud of smoke is my Camaro...







Went down by the local dam to get a few more pictures...







Some lady offered to take my picture with my Camaro, too bad she didnt get the whole car in. Oh well...

 

wow its gone a long way

 

Thanks...my friend was just saying that the Camaro no longer looks like some Camaro that was ready for the junkyard. Still by no means perfect but should hold its own at smaller car shows.

 

Well I must have A.D.D or something because I took the black Z06 replica wheels and traded them for chrome versions today. Met up with Adrian (unik_gtz) who drove down from Wisconsin to dropped the wheels off. Came home and hit the wheels with some chrome polish and shined the tires (which instantly soaked up the tire shine) Snapped a few pics too after I waxed the Camaro...

 

The black ones looked better

 

put the manta ray on mike! the chrome looks better than the other one's. too much black on the car. jason should put those black one's on his car

 

I agree...wanted to stay away from the "murdered out" look. The chrome makes the car "pop" a little more. I traded the black ones for these wheels. Jason has Weld Draglights on his.

 

I personally liked the grey / silver painted wheels better than the black or chrome on your car. But....it's YOUR car and that's all that matters. Alot of people wouldn't approve to the things I've done to my 61 Bel Air, but I am never going to sell it so why should I care?

 

Actually decided to attend a car event finally. Met up with a local car group for a Memorial Day Cruise (was yesterday but rain postponed it) so the turnout wasnt the largest but still alot of fun. Some pics from the cruise...

Group started out pretty small...



Of course some Birds had to play around! lol



Some GM muscle at the stoplight...



Tried to get a pic for Amy but she had her music up too loud! lol



At the second stop...



Gathered some more cars...



And I broke...Trans line blew at a stoplight. Thanks for everyone for stopping the cruise and helping me get the line back on! Forget the guys name at the moment thats under my car but thanks for the help and thanks Amy for driving me for a parts run!



Whats a cruise without a stop for Hooters wings. At the Hooters parking lot. Tried to get everyone in the picture but the group got pretty large at this point.



Another angle at Hooters...



Minus my Camaro breaking down, the cruise was a blast! Cant wait for next time! Met alot of new people and caught up with some old friends!

 

Wish I wasnt working and the camaro was running

 

Nice pictures man, hopefully me and everyone else local gets their projects done in time for summer...

just read all 33 pages and man has that car been through some changes. as many times as you traded parts with people i was waiting for a post that said traded car for something else. nice car and good job on everything.

 

I liked the SS wheels and the Black Wheels, The chrome im iffy about but hey its your car and still looks awesome!!!!!!!

 

Are those last pics by woodfieldmall??????? I live right next to there i should have joined!!!!!!!!

 

They were...at the Hooters parking lot! It was a good time!

 

The Dreaded FOR SALE Post

Well...hate to say it but...Ive acquired a new project and need to make room for it as well as get a daily driver thats better for hauling a trailer/parts so Im offering this Camaro to you guys first...

Picked up a 1969 LeMans that will take alot of my time. I already sold my 91 Camaro as well so Im hoping to go down to my 72 and the 69 and have a truck or SUV as my daily driver.

So this is your chance to own this "Lengendary" Camaro and the rights to continue with this thread as you wish. I dont expect to part with it until fall but if the right deal/trade came along Im deal early.

Looking for a trade for a full size chevy or ford truck, suv or anything along those lines. Must be in similar condition but I will entertain trades plus cash.

This has been both my wifes daily driver and mine for the past 3 months with no issues. Paint is a 8.5 out of 10 (would be a little better once the old spoiler holes are welded up) Interior is the same with a small tear on the side of the drivers seat (the normal tear) Has heat and defrost but no a/c...although have all the parts to go back to A/C if someone wanted to.

Any more questions, PM me...hate to let it go...but Id like to see it in good hands.

 

wow Mike, for sale! can't believe it. man you put a lot of blood/sweat in that car. I'm sure a few tears too.

 

Yeah, for sure...I got it pretty much "finished" Left my possession tonight to my wifes friends family who are using it as father/son project car. Seems like its in good hands and hopefully they will keep us updated on it. Was a fun ride while it lasted and I owe all you who helped me big time! Huge thanks to everyone for you support/criticism/help over the past few years. I enjoyed the build but Ill pass this nice car off and let someone else enjoy it! She will be missed!

Not sure on my F-body future as I just picked up a 69 LeMans project car a few weeks ago which I will probably end up doing something similar for on performanceyears.com with a build thread. Also my 72 is still in storage so I have my hands full of American Muscle but no Camaros currently. Ill be around if anyone needs anything...dont hesitate to PM me!

 

hey, im new to this forum but not new to the 4th gens and 3rd gens.... do you still have that messed up ss spoiler? if so how much would you want for it since it needs fixed?

would $50 shipped buy it shipped to 48180??

BTW BEAUTIFUL!!!!! just beautiful Camaro, i want to do this to mine... i need a ls1 front end... looks like you started out as a drag car then wound up with a PERFECT SS clone car... great work...


also how did you get the 97 gauges to work in your car?

 

if anyone has anything i can use for a swap like this, please let me know... PM me
