Don't worry about bringing your car out. No one will have their cars out. Its just a chance for Camaro guys to get together and talk about their cars etc....... So far I have all kinds of Camaro guys coming. 67-2010 Alls I ask is that you give a heads up for coming. Thanks

I've been getting a few questions about the open house. Yes the American Hero's Project Car III will be there along with some other fun project cars. Also if you have pictures of your own Camaro or other rides bring them. Everyone loves to project pictures and what everyone is driving. Lastly just come and have fun. Please ask any questions if you have them. Thanks

Do you work for route 66 motorsports? Not raining on their parade, but I think those people charge a ton of money for a whole lot of nothing. Two years ago they debuted a 69 camaro that was two toned, decent interior, and I think it was a big block in it, all for around 200,000. They obviously used alot of bondo for those hood scoops on there, and the car was not very straight. They had to move their car due to a very clean 68 camaro next to it because someone did not know how to buff a car, and the paint was very hazy for that amount of money. The interior was pretty nice though, I hope they got their act together on the paint work, for a 35 year old hot rod shop, I would expect better.

No I don't work for them, they are working on my car (69 Camaro W/LS1) and they asked what I thought about helping them spread the word for an open house for Camaro guys. Their prices are very fair I have found from talking to other shops etc..... Not sure about that $200,000 Camaro your talking about, so I can't comment on it. Although they did the American Hero's Project Car II and it took in $500,000.00 at Barrett Jackson and are working on the American Hero's Project Car III. They have also been in a ton of magazines. check them out www.rt66motorsports.com and on top of it all they have been very nice and professional while working with my project car.
