Adrian87Camaro's 1987 Chevrolet Camaro


This is my first car. I bought it my freshman year in high school off some older folks, thus it was in excellent condition, especially the interior. It only had 87,000 miles which is pretty decent condsidering it is almost two decades old. I admit that white didn't do much for it's appearance, but a trip to the paint shop took care of that.

Black was the only color that I thought best suited the interior. I had the bumper guards and the Camaro emblems behind the front wheels remove to give it that clean look. I know "The Batmobile" sounds kind of corny, but it is the most common description of the car I get when people first see it. Right now its a little above stock performance. Under the hood there's 305 with a four-barrel carb just waiting to be beefed up, but first comes college. Right now it's my daily driver so I don't have much time to do a huge overhaul on it anyways.

Here's a view from the back. I hope to get some tint on the rear and front window pretty soon. That would definetly give it a cleaner appearance.

These pictures are a year old and the car still has it's stock rims from 1987, but I'll update it soon enough. Currently I have American Racing Outlaw II 15x8 rims wrapped in BF Goodrich Radial T/A P225/60R/15 tires. It also has a high-flow cat and Flowmaster 40 Series muffler.

As you can tell the interior is in excellent shape. It is the stock interior from 1987. To date the only repair to it was the replacement of the headliner. Other than this I have cleaned both the carpet and upholstry myself.

Here's a pic of my Camaro with my brother's 89' Silverado, which has one the loudest exhausts I've ever heard(it will literaly leave your ears ringing)

This is the most recent picture of my car. I applied seven cans of Permatex rubberized undercoating to the underside and wheel wells. Also, I got the windows tinted; 35% on the front and 10% on the back. I plan to take it in to get the carb rebuilt, brakes redone(I got warped rotors), new shocks, and fix a few minor problems.

So far the exterior is exactly as the picture before, but I have quite a few add-ons. They include: Edelbrock Performer intake manifold, rebuilt carb with 10% bigger jets, high flow aluminum water pump, new radiator, Accel spiral racing wires, MSD cap, rotor, and ignition box, as well as having all the hoses under the hood replaced. My next upgrade is a Hypertech Streetrunner chip.

I got the Hypertech Streetrunner chip, which only made a small difference. However, I got pulled over by a CHP, who decided I wasn't going fast enough for a ticket, but enough to make me take the tint of my windows and put the front license plate back on. So now the car looks a little dorky, but I'll eventually change it back.

My next thoughts are regarding a Posi and 3.73 gears.
