does anyone go here NOT HAVE A CAMARO?

[Scotch]

Don't have one. Never did. Probably never will. No Camaros, Mustangs, or Firebirds for me. I've built 'em as project cars for the mags and enjoyed every minute of it, but they're just too easy. Anyone can build a good Camaro. If you can't, you're brain damaged.

I like to build other stuff- I'm into A-bodies right now but that's probably temporary. I've built Mopars before (3 B-bodies) and they were fun too.

I'm heading into a rod/custom phase I think. I have a '50 Buick I'm doing a custom job on and I'm craving an early Ford hot rod.

After I finish the Chevelle and the GTO, I'll probably get into that stuff.

...so that should be in about 10 years...

I guess there are a lot of brain damaged people out there building camaros.

There are plenty.

The point is, it's relatively easy to build a Camaro when compared to almost any other model of car. Small-block, automatic, wheels, tires, exhaust, stereo....Done.

I know many here go MUCH further, but to do a "decent" Camaro is pretty damn easy, don't you think?

If you count Camaros/Firebirds/Corvettes I have had 10.5 BUT I have had 26 or so Mustangs counting the 6 I have now.....

Well the principles of building ANY car are the same.. 1st gen Camaros are only easier because they have a HUGE aftermarket (because they are so popular). Infact I would say it is easier to build an ugly camaro because there are so many nice examples to compare it to.

Also, since there are so many nice 1st gen Camaros I would say it is actually harder to build on the is unique and stands out from the crowd.

Did that make any sense???

[Scotch]

I think second- and third-gens might be even easier than first-gens..

..and yes, it's tough to build a "unique" Camaro...because....?

LOL!

Braindamage or not, have you considered how many of us that might have been conceived in the backseat of a Camaro

Might be some reason why we are so fond of them.

Hmmm...... Really makes me wonder. My parents did have a '67 before I was born.

Oh well, I guess it's time to unload both of my first gen camaro projects, they are just too damn easy to build... I accidently finished one after supper last night and I didn't even realize it!

It certainly doesn't matter that this is the car that I like and always wanted to build....The parts are now just TOO available, and I certainly don't want people to think I'm only one step beyond brain dead by building myself a decent one....I need a REAL challenge that I can suffer through and never ever finish, yet talk about incessantly, to prove myself truly worthy...one that the almighty magazines will appreciate...I hope the magazine people hurry up and tell me what to build next!
I simply MUST please them!!!

Hmm...Maybe a PT conestoga wagon? I gotta get Kris going on a rendering...
