67 Camaro "Nutkse"
Long time member. Somehow I never got around to posting about my ride. Bought her from a member back in 2017. Super well built car that has only required minor maintenance over the last six years. Of course you can't leave anything alone so I updated a few things to my liking. I have owned a few Camaros but this was the first one that was a full protour build. Night and day driving difference with all of the modern parts. So much that I ripped apart my 68 Camaro to modernize it. More on that one one day...
Drivetrain:
LS2/T56
Wayne Due subframe with C5 components
Ridetech 4 link
Rushforth Super Spokes. 18" up front with 275's, and 19" out back with 325's. Jason Rushforth nailed it with the wheel combo.
Stainless headers and 3-inch stainless exhaust.
Ricks Tank
Interior:
Sparco front seats (best seats I have ever had in a Camaro)
Stock narrowed rear seat
Vintage AC
Racepak Dash (eh, should have gone with the Dakota Digital dash)
5" Apple Carplay LCD which is great for long rides.
Tilt column with a Sparco wheel. So much better than the stock bus-size steering wheel.
Misc:
Ford mineral gray metallic with black stripes.
Retro Elec RS setup.
American Autowire harness.
DSE wiper setup.
Optima battery.
Lotta smiles and happy miles...
That's me in the green shirt with my buddy.
Since I bought it I have wanted to add my Procharger D1SC (out of my 68) but the car drives so good I am afraid to change anything. If I get the nerve up this winter I will start that project now that the 68 is back on the road. Planning to go with a Holley Intake, Tick performance heat exchanger (no room for an intercooler with the Wayne Due frame and RS doors), Procharger serp setup. Hopefully, the internals and drivetrain can handle the update.
