The car is here!!!!
 

Hope everyone is well.


Late (I mean late) last night the Camaro I acquired from Tracy (rebird) arrived from Louisiana. The car was transported most of the way enclosed but also endured many days sitting outside in a "holding terminal - (3 of them), and, the first and last leg of it's journey were via open carrier. Word to the wise...NEVER WORK WITH DEPENDABLE AUTO SHIPPERS (DAS). Charley was right, they suck.

At any rate, the car is covered in dust, dirt, bugs and other stuff but appears to be a great, very well built car. I have DMV stuff to do this morning and then will clean up the car a bit and post some pics. What I should really do is either post a .wav file and\or a video clip because you have to hear this car. It sounds amazing. Big, low rumble from the 580 ci motor but grabs revs quick like a small block. Very awesome sounding car. Will post driving impressions later but early indications are the car is BAD A$$. :thumbsup:

Cool Chris, I'm coming over to see it. :unibrow:

A few pics of the new arrival
 

Hope everyone is well.

After much pain, suffering and delay, the 68 Camaro I bought from Tracy (rebird) arrived late last night. I had a chance to clean it up a bit (see earlier post about dirt lots, etc), drive it a bit and take some pics. The car runs great. Even with 335's in the rear the big motor will fry the tires at any RPM in the 1st 2 gears. Big fun. And, this thing will change directions like a rat with tennis shoes. Bigger fun. :thumbsup: At any rate, here is a link to some pics of the car. Sorry about the dim lighting.
