  This is my 1989 Camaro RS that I purchased off ebay, in November of 06. It was and original v6 5spd. The motor and trans was gone. It sat in a garage for about 8 years before anyone did anything with it. Thats when I bought it off ebay and started work on converting it to a 305 TPI v8. Well it's taken many months to finish but my car is finally back in one piece. It still has some little things that need to be done to it but it turned out good. Seeing the project finally together made all the hard work worth it.  UPDATE   Well I got the carb setup all back together with the new cam.  Then I took the car out and blew the posi in the rear, so pics of that on page 5.
