My Camaro project

[Steve Petroff]

Hi Guys,

Introduced my brothers Ranch Wagon project a while back but thought I'd introduce my own project that I'm close to finishing.

Purchased this 1991 Camaro Z-28 way back in 1992 with only 20k, did a few mods at a time, and then went crazy ! I've been doing all the new mods over the last 8+ years and as you can see I'm almost nearing completion. Looking forward to finally driving it again after being off the road all those years !

That looks great. Nice to see the third gens coming back to life. I at first did not like that body style That was back in the early 80s I got mine in 92 from a salvage yard the car was perfect only had a knocking 305 still dove it that summer and then fell in love the the third gens. Nice car Steve
