We gotta throw a crank kit in the 350, then I'll drop the engine and tranny in. Then it should be driveable.
'78 Z28
(wheels were just for transportation, I'm either putting summit stars on it or stock wheels from something. Seat covers are coming off as well.)

that's a very interesting color. Not sure if I like it, haha.
Right now I'm debating, either selling the GSX and buying a DD and keeping the camaro to race, or getting the camaro running and selling it.

Eh, just don't make an impulse decision. You may regret it. Muscle cars are my true love lol.

edit- That is similar to the color my Cuda was and my dad's is. Actually a very rare color and we both wound up having the same color. But I painted mine purple.:D

You're right, I have regretted selling the mustang and civic.
But who knows... my dad just told me about an 84 corvette I could get for a decent price. :ninja:

Well it used to be like a 9 second car, but I will just be putting a cammed 350 in it. Along with a 4.88 posi rear end...

Who makes the hood on the blue Camaro?

Is it difficult to get in and out with the rollbar?

P.S. Keep it blue, lol.

No idea honestly.

I don't have a problem, I'm 5'10" and 160, so I'm not too big. But my dad's camaro has gotten me used to the bar.

I might keep it blue, might do ALL black:boobies:

6'0" and 220. A little bigger.

What heads/cam are you looking at running?

lol, just a hair. I kinda use the bar to get in instead of letting it hinder getting it.

Stock heads on a gen 2 350 (from like a 95 van?), but it has the biggest cam a stock 350 can take (the valve springs anyways). My dad put it in before he put the motor in a friends 2nd gen camaro, but he doesn't remember the specs on it.
