Default Hobbs Camaro (Old Drag Car)


One of the parts I have used on 69 Camaros since 1993. 1990-1993 Caprice fuel/license plate frame. It flips down like a 69 Camaro one, excepts it toggles over and stays in a 90 degree angle while you are filling. I used to get them out of junk yards for $3. Now on EBay they are $35.

I thought that looked familiar... my '93 Caprice outside says "hi!"

Haven't had a '94-6 B-body in a few years but the plate bracket ought to be the same for those years as well.

When you build a lot of Camaros you get to regift parts. I found this driveshaft in my atic. Matt and I took a few minutes to sort out where it came from. When we swapped the engine and sub frame in Jackass the engine was moved rearward requiring a new driveshaft. So this is to old driveshaft out of Jackass 1.0 from around 2007. Look honey I’m saving money….lol

Love the license plate flip down and try not to talk about what I spend on my cars with my wife.

Hey Mark,

I was curious if you thought the C6 Z06 brakes would clear the Forgeline OE wheels front and rear.

Yes Forgeline can build them to fit the 6 piston C6 Z06 brakes. You will need to go to a thinner outer wheel half. I did the base slider C6 brakes to get a more “stock” look. I pulled the hub cab back as far as I could with the widest outer wheel half I could do.
