Thumbs up Out with the newer, in with the OLD!
I finally found a suitable replacement for the black WS6 Formula. I decided I would rather have another old Camaro to build into an LS1 powered hotrod. The plan is to put the forged 347ci (Rapid Motorsports) and Procharger D1SC in this 1967 Camaro. The car is very clean, mostly restored and has some nice suspension parts already. Here it is shown with the 16" wheels, and the 18" iForged wheels.









You may have noticed that I went with a more traditional wheel for the hugger orange convertible. 18x8 and 18x10 Torque-Thrust 2 "Classics". I'm still planning on putting the LS7/T56 into this convertible.

Very nice Tony!


I've been fighting the "1st Gen bug". The cravings get bad sometimes. And YOU are certainly not helping.
