Caught on fire and i really want to throw it off a dang clif biggest waste of money i ever invested in 1900 bucks down the drain!

 

 

 Ok to start this page id like to say who inspired me to love and work with old muscle cars.  My dad who is now not with us as of 10-23-1994 also only 3 days after i turned 3.  I didnt know my dad well but i do know that he loved working with old cars he was only 24 when he died suddenly from a hart diease that the doctors did not know of.  My doctors also told me that i had it last year in 07.  Before he died he had a 1970 2 door Nova that was black with 2 red racing stripes with a 401 big block.  When he died his money was split between bills and his 3 kids each getting 1g that we got when we turned 16. My older sister used the money to go to Europe, My younger brother used his on a 1986 ford tarus... dont ask me why, and i used mine to get my first muscle car out of the 5 id like to own. My 5 cars of choice are my camaro, a 1970 charger, 1967 fastback mustang, a 1970 corvette, and a 1970 nova like my fathers.

 

 

Interior mostaly original exp radio and stering wheel. I do have the glove box to go in the center and i am building somethign to cover the radio up so you can pull it down and see the radio. The new xplod radio and speakers.

The engine used to be a v6 with manual tranny, but was switched to a beafy 350 with a 350 auto tranny.  It runs good exp some dumb nut put tranny fuild in my power steering so it whins a little ive been working on it in my high school auto class i want to grow to be a machnic and after my last year at my school iam going to go to Wyotech for more schooling.  Car has amazinaly no leeks, tranny fuild and filter just changes oil has also just been changed. Lots of chrome Valve covers, both dipsticks, dual flowmaster exhuast, and air filter cover. Ac and heater have been removed by pervious owner to fit the bigger engine in i though about dropping a crate into it but dont have money.

So now iam working on striping all my paint off of my car by hand.  Just started today 1-1-09 and already have half of my back right panel done and my trunk lid done love this solo project and after its striped ill be fixing the body and primering the whole car till i graduate then my mom is paying to get it painted. 1-4-09 Trunk, back right panel, and passanger door done. 1-8-09 only part of car left to strip is hood then it needs primered iam working fast ill get pics up of the primered car i think its gonna be gray primer with 2 black racing stripes. Then i think i changed my mine on paint i think silver with 2 black racing strips would look cool. So my friend Corey is now helping me and has payed for primer and sand papper.  In just 2 days of him helping we are ready to finish this job after only 8 days after starting the stripping and primer job.  Saturday night the 10th we are going to bring it to its first car show and see if we can get some donations to help finish my camaro.  Ok ill get new pics of the primered body and i changed my holly intake to a elderbrock intake.
