On this page I have put up todate pictures of my car. I bought it in 2007 from the second owner. It was a standard 305 TBI RS Camaro that was only intended to be a beater until i saved the money to buy something better. How ever if you knew me then you would know that i like to drive something nice so a beater wouldn't do, i don't care if I was driving a Pinto, id HAVE to make it a nice car to drive. So once i brought it home it wasn't long until I got to work, making it something better, something i could be proud of.
*Up date Aug. 6th 2009, I know i haven't updated in a while but currently what im doing is trying to restore my radio and AC controls. Im searching high and low for a mint cond. UM6 or UX1 radio. Later this month i will buy new AC controls. Hopefully soon ill finish this project and move on to the next.*
*Up date Oct. 10th 2009, while saving up for a stock radio and new AC controls my car developed a gear whine in the rear end which basically made my car sound like a C-17 taxiing down the road. I guess that will happen to a 10 bolt rear end that has seen 210,000 miles. I had to switch direction and buy new parts to fix my 10 bolt. Thus i bought Moser axles, 3.73 gears, a Eaton posi trac, and a TA girdle (differential cover). Also i got all the bearings and supportive equipment to install all the new parts. Everything should be installed in the next couple days. At first i was pissed I had to put off my goal of getting the stock radio and AC controls, but luck be a lady today while i was at the junkyard i found the correct Radio and AC controls for my car. Even better they were in excellent cond. and for only $20 which is a steal!*
* Up date Jan. 22 2010, since the last update ive been collecting parts for multiple projects. Projects involving susspension, induction, brakes, and ignition. This weekend I will stop jumping from one project to another and begin focusing on finishing one project before i start the next. So for this weekend ill start with my susspension. I recently went to the junk yard and bought a 36mm front and 24 mm rear sway bar. I then cleaned them up and went to a local shop to have them powder coated red. Today the appropriate brakets from energy susspension came in, im now ready to install the sway bar. more to come*
*Up date Jan. 23 2010. Got an early start on the car today. I installed the 36/24mm front and rear sway bars and took it for a test drive. I got to say it made a huge improvment in handling. Normally people go with a 36/19 combo but i wanted to give the 36/24 a try and so far im very pleased. I don't have a track to test it on but a empty parking lot and a few minutes of playing around i can honestly say my car feels like it's on rails. Once i got the car back home i let it cool down and got started on installing my 8.5 MSD wires. I got some over the valve cover wire seperaters to complete the installation. It's a huge improvment in over all looks in the engine bay, pictures coming soon.
On the other pages you'll find where it started life as, but here you'll see what ive made it.
As you can see it have 19X9.5 HP lightnings, a Sunoco Hood and 5inch spoiler by Hawks. Basically everything you see in this picture is new
I took the original nose emblem off and installed a red carbon fiber in it's place, here you'll see how the Sunoco hood keeps the center ridge like the stock hood. It's also cowled along the factor lines of the stock hood to give it a OEM type of look
