305 TPI With Nitrous

RuinDeckard's 1985 Chevrolet Camaro

This was the Iroc when we first started working on it.

The Bad news

It was undrivable because the the fuel tank had old gas in it from sitting for years. Also the transmission was bad and missing the shift cable. The spark plug wires were chewed they still worked but lots of arcing inside the engine bay :P. The tires were cracked and bulged. The rims looked like they belonged on a civic. The front right break caliper was ceased up. Headliner was falling down. Speakers were missing.

The Good news

The origonal 305 was in good shape. It ran smooth with no issues. There was no body damage only surface rust. The interior was in really good shape no tears or signs of abuse other then the steering column. All the windows were free of cracks. Nitrous kit was still left in and hooked up to the motor just needs a bottle.

Budget went towards

It needed a new gas tank, transmission, shift cable, caliper, new brakes, tune up, thermistat, tires, rims, paint, some sanding, new hood struts, hatch struts, and new steering column. Speakers and new stereo.
