Besides I've always been a Camaro guy. Goes back to being a kid and begging dad to ride in his 70 1/2 LT1 Z28. That's why I refuse to dd anything other than my camaro. I don't mind it being down for a little while when I change things but once it's right I'm driving the wheel off that bitch.
I hear ya--- I love the vettes, but a trans am or Camaro is just more "me". i'm hoping the 3400 pound 6th gen Camaro comes to fruition.

You might not be talking about factory, but the 396 big block didn't debut till '65. All '63s and '64s were 327s.

I hate that taxes would drive someone out of a car. I understand the "that's me" deal with cars. Deep down, I think that's why you'll defend the LS/LT to the ends if the earth!

If I ever get a car like that (old sports car, muscle car, etc), it's gonna be a cruiser. And it don't get more "cruiser" than a Corvette convertible.

Thank you sir. Told y'all my cars aren't susceptible to the laws of gravity.

New wheels should be in next week. Got to get some rubber soon. Pumps will be going in after that along with injectors. Just knocking off little pdds and ends as I go.

I love c2s so much. Loved them ever since my neighbor got one when I was 11-12, I used to get to ride in that car all the time.

Heartland customs built the silver car. Cost 375k. It's unreal, but it should be.

Black w/ red stinger is as classic as Classic gets! Beautiful! And worth a boat load!

Here's a cool project I did for a guy recently. Coyote swapped Mustang

He wrecked it at a road course





I put a qtr on it.....a used qtr from a junk yard that had all ready been fixed......fml



pre fitted it all



Now here is where it gets cool.

He bought a carbon hood. The hood was suppose to be a pin on only except he wanted it on hinges...........yea I can do that

No spot for hinges



Make mold of the back of the termi hood he had on the car



Remove mold make part







Fished fit and paint
