beautiful car…i love it :tup:
I’m super super serial here…you have to take me for a ride in that beast man lol. I’ve never been in a REAL muscle car before.
Haha. Get in line.
First and foremost, my wife gets a ride in it. I’ve been with her for 8 years and she NEVER has gotten a ride in it. And a few weeks ago I was getting it ready to take it for a ride with her and it wouldn’t stay running. Hell, I’ll let her drive it. She drove her dads 71 Vette like she stole it, I’m sure she can handle the Camaro
Quite possibly the cleanest,most original, and tastefull cars ive ever seen on this site.Id love to see this thing in person.
:tup: amazing car man.
Thanks
Next place you can see it is my yearly car show this Sunday

Just an update…
Brought it out to a show in grand Island a few weeks ago. First time my wife ever rode in the car in 8 years. Big block shakes her boobies
Walked away with Best of Show Camaro
But have been having wierd feelings about the transmission. Didn’t seem to have the right shift points. Brought it to RTR to check it out and adjust the 700r4. 2nd and 4th gear are F’ed. Ripping the transmission out this Saturday to get it rebuilt and get a new converter. Then while it is out getting new trans lines and buttoning up some loose ends.
Adding to the money pit. Still enjoyable as hell.
Brought it out 13 times and it’s rained 10 out the the 13 times. WTF
Oh yea, pics are not up of the car because RodandPiston.com is temporarily down due to some major server and software upgrades
Haha, honored
You ever going to bring that Stang around or is it in your garage collecting dust?
OK, an update. The 700R4 transmission I got with the engine was crap. Slightly used, my ass. So it went off to RTR for a rebuild, shift kit, and new converter. Pauly helped me get it out and in, and took a short test drive today. Just needs some slight adjustment and we’re back in business.
Paying homage to my friends that helped me get it done and egged me on
4EVRESTO = Forever Restoration
Also, some cutom air cleaner decals that were specially made.
Contact me if you want to get any made like this. I got them off a Camaro site, but he can make whatever you want and relatively cheap.
Hey Joe, car looks great! I just hope you don’t drive that like you drive those go-carts! See ya around.:biglaugh:
Looks incredible!
You really don’t see many older camaro’s around here done up that nice.
Fantastic Joe, congrats! I’d love to check it out in person sometime, I have a soft spot for 1st gen’s.
its so clean the blue looks like it glows. very nice joe.
Haha… I’ve been light on the gas pedal lately since I didn’t trust the tranny much. Going to “break” it in this week.
Don’t be too harsh on those guys on my site j/k
Congrats on the win
Well, you could see my Camaro and a lot of other real nice cars this Sunday September 7 at the Sheridan Cruise

Thanks
Actually there are a decent amount of nice first gens in the area. A lot of them stayed with the stock look where I went to the resto-mod look.
But there are a bunch of us out there.
:tup:
looks awesome
