PROJECT: “Not at the table Carlos”
 

-The Story-
I’ve owned this car for 10yrs and when first restorored it was back to the original state. My car stayed like this up until last year when I decided to make my car a little more fun to drive. At first I was really nervous about updating my car since it’s a numbers matching but decided it was time to jumped in and get it done. This was deffenatly the best decision I’ve made, My car handles better than ever.

Ahhh i was wondering what car those black night trains from driverz were going on. They look so evil. I love it

Awesome Camaro. Great that you're going to get out and drive it, especially with those mods. Those Rushforth wheels look badaz.

wow that will look great; the black wheels complementing the black bumblebee stripe, with yellow contrast. awesome

Whatever happened to your other project?

Be careful with E85, nobody around here runs it so the gas is old and bad. Some lady messed up her truck running it.

Very nice. Should be a sweet build.:thumbsup:
Those Rushforth's are KILLER!!!:wow:

Just realized where your project name was from and bout peed my pants!! Well done!! And good lookin wheels!:thumbsup:

Thanks for all the complements. :thumbsup:

The other project is still at J2 and is in good hands with Jeff and his crew.

I’ve heard the same thing that you can’t let it set around otherwise it goes bad. The good thing is if E85 doesn’t work out it’s just a matter of changing over the metering blocks and jets.

LOL! I’ve been getting a lot of feedback on the name of my project. I decided to go with a not so serious name for this project and decided to have some fun with it. I’ll tell you when I thought of it I too about peed my pants.
