Default I may buy my car back!

Called my friend to see how the old Camaro was doing and he mentioned the tranny needs to be rebuilt along with a new clutch. I told him I could do some work on it but also mentioned I'd love to own it again. Looks like he's thought about selling it and will let me know what he wants for it. I've been missing it a lot lately so this would be great to get back!

Keep in mind I was 20 when I had that done. I had the guy that painted the hood paint the pieces. I wouldn'tdo it on another car but I still kinda like it on that car since it was mine and it was the way I made it.

My best run was a 12.77 @ 111 w/ 4.10's, lid, GMMG catback, and FTRA on my stock 245's and a smashed stock y-pipe. Never ran it after I put in the G5X2, Edelbrock Victor series headers and true duals. The current owner had it tuned by TJ Wong and it put down ~375 hp. Still on a stock intake/tb and 98 heads. So all in ll not too bad.

Here's a couple other pics...

Sweet dude... that was a nice ride, it would be cool to see you get it back.

I'm gonna be down to 1 LSx car here real soon, my Trans Am is pretty much sold and the GTO will be following shortly.

It's just a photoshop of what I want to do. I have a 70 that is down to the bare frame but am selling it as I won't have room due to selling my house. I will get another and build it that way sometime though...

Not yet, My house goes up for sale soon and I'm also waiting on a title for a Saab I have to hopefully use as partial trade.
