As I mentioned, the Camaro is undergoing a makeover. I build these cars to drive and drive them I do. I put about 20,000 miles on this one, after the first build. When I finished the '68 Chevy C10, I started looking at the Camaro and thought, "You know, this thing is gettin' beat up." Rock chips, door dings and scratches in the paint from people laying their hands on the car at cruisin's......It was time for a facelift.



I took the car to the same guy that painted my C10, Gary Robison. The Camaro didn't need any major body work. No rust or dents; it just needed a little massage. Gary worked out all of the ripples and lined all the body panels up, just like they are suppose to be. I put the body together the first go round and, I'm here to tell you, there is an art to putting these cars together correctly and, I'm no good at that kind of art. Victory Red is the color. Once the paint was done, I went to check it out and make a try to decide on the graphics I wanted on the car. The red looked so good, all by itself, I decided to leave it all RED.

I contacted TMI to design the interior. New seats, headliner, dash pad, door/rear panels are ordered. I should be getting the interior any day.

The motor is new as well. It's a ZZ4 that has been worked over a bit. The block and internals were machined and built by Naiser Racing, Houston, Texas. The heads were done by Westside Machine, also out of Houston. I've decided to try the new FiTECH fuel injection system. I've hear a lot of good things about their setup.



I also upgraded the rearend. All Moser internals and a 3.55 gear, coupled with the Gear Vendors Over/Under Drive, should make it hookup and scoot fairly well.



I'll post more pics as the build moves along.
