old car in need of some tlc. has a 305 that i am about to hop up some. bought it for 300 bucks drove it home and ripped out the stock v-6 because they suck. look for updates as this is my current project car

 

after some trouble with the old 305 i decided to invest in a 400. it is being rebuilt in my spare time so it is kinda taking me a while. so that means a new 400 small block and a 700r tranny to back it up. not shure yet how paint should go though. i want it to be kinda dark blacks and blues. got a set of chrome rims to go on it also.

bought this truck for 200 just for the edelbrock heads, holley carb, edelbrock highrise intake and can-am cam shaft.

need to clean up the engine bay first though and throw a coat of paint in there

not bad rims for being out of a junkyard. literally pulled them off a malibu heading to the crusher.

Thanks for the comments man. Great find for $300, that thing has crazy potential! Dark blue sounds like a good colour for it, my old Cutlass was a midnight blue metallic and I loved it. Good start, 5*!

nice buy for 300.cant wait to see more pics of it. i dont think ive ever seen a cap on a camino. if your not keeping the cap try selling on ebay or something cause i bet somebody would buy it. personally i'd keep it on it, gives it that unique look. it gives it something that stands out from the rest of the caminos.

nice car definitely has some serios potential, looks sweet fo 300 bucks, i'd say go for a done up 350 (or y not 454 lol), maybe an SS front end ( o and just speaking for myself i'd lose the cab on the back, should be sweet when your done be sure to get up some more pics cuz i'm sure it'll be awesome when its done!
