Glad you are better at building them than naming them... Definitely be watching this puppy come together.

All aluminum SB2.2 10:1 stroked to 400 ci (actually 393 but close enough)

Jerico or Tex dog ring 4 speed

Full frame with Jake's Hot Rod Shop suspension

Body dropped on frame with a ride height of 4 inches

11.5 front rims and 13 rear

Lexan

Wide body

Full cage
Geeze all I need one more Camaro build that I have to admit I like

For Paytons sake I hope he is buying his motor parts from a different source.

... And I'm sure this is what Payton named his car after.

When I saw the title this immediately started playing in my mind.

^^ now that's pretty funny.

Can't wait to see how this one turns out Payton. That's my kind of "thrift store" btw. I gotta keep that in mind next time I visit NC.

I had this same idea in my head, but a little more like a "Late Model" type racecar. Wide 5 hubs, quickchange etc.

We will have to catch up at one of the events this year. I am in the Hickory area.
I dont post here much. Same username on PT.

Good luck....Sounds like a killer setup!!

Default Ding, ding , ding...we have a winner!

Matt is about right on the video. I have 2 boys 10 and 13 and I have listened to that song about 1 million times to and from soccer practice. It does fit though. First time I went to that guy's storage building I had a specific amount of cash in my pocket to get a gas pedal. Once I was there I knew I was going to be short on cash. Next time, I had more than $20 dollars and I was poppin' tags.

Lots of used NASCAR and circle track re-sellers in the area. He is just one of many. Next time I go up to Roush /Yates I will get some photos. Imagine a Home Depot, but with race parts filling the shelves. Motors on pallets stack in the shelves, entire car on one isle. It is crazy.

As soon as I figure out how to do the questions in quotes it will be easier to answer specific questions. Before I started the build, I was going to get a Howe road race front clip and run the 5x5 hubs and all the circle stuff.

Tough to be creative with a name for a project when I am not creative enough to do something other than a Camaro. It is a little goofy to name you car or project anyway, but how else do you keep your seperate from the others? "I am the guy doing the 1st gen Camaro on the site." Yea, that narrows me down to about 1000 projects. LOL

Somebody asked about NASCAR brakes. Kind of...using an AP calliper used in circle track with a lug mount on a floater with a Grand National hub in the rear. I will post up some pics later on that one.

The yellow car was on the Cover of Camaro Performers and had an 8 page spread. April of 2009 (Thank you Mr. Rupp!)

As far as paint, you may be looking at it. Going to replace the roof so it will be in primer, may leave the rest of the car as is until I get it sorted. It will be a wide body, but may cut out the fenders and quarter dirt track style for a season.

This is my inspiration photo/drawing
