UMI's Newest Test Car- 1971 Camaro- Pro-Touring Build
 

We just picked up UMI's newest test car to help us finalize the development of our 1970-1981 Camaro and Firebird line.

The car we purchased is a 1971 Camaro (non-Z28, only badged by previous owner) The body was recently redone and car painted, it looks good for us and saves us that step. The engine currently is a very weak 305 with a TH350 transmission. We currently started building a 383 for the car, details will follow.

We hope you follow along as we transform this car, develop off of it and test our products using it.

Here's some pictures as it sits right now: Stay tuned!

Nice looking ride.

What do you plan to develop for them?

That looks good looking forward to the build!!

Currently we have upper and lower front a-arm prototypes completed. Also a front and rear sway bar. We currently have springs in the works along with shocks and possibly rear leafs. Should be some cool stuff, I'm excited about it.

Gorgeous start
 

Looking forward to it

First step on our '71 is to test fit and test drive our new UMI non-adjustable direct bolt in monotube shocks. Front springs and rear leafs will be the next step.

UMI shocks are tuned by UMI, made in the USA and feature a larger piston and shaft size. We have had excellent results and feedback from our A and G-Body crowd on these shocks.
