Cant wait to see her painted and on the road. Your almost there Scott. I think you should paint her chevy hugger orange with white stripes. Heard it makes you go faster

Gaetano,
There are a bunch of orange 2nd gens out there right now. I like the mulsanna blue,or a benz bright silver.I been thinking I am going to need alot more motor than I have now. Mast motor sports sell a 690hp SS427 that might work.I still need to fab a dash & gauge insert,hang some a/c.build a rear package shelf like jack ass has,fab exhaust,mount the steering column,build a fuel tank,mount the gas pedal,fix a few small rust holes & fab a trailer hitch and small 4x4 2 wheeled trailer.I think I will up grade to new ZO6 brakes and sell the Z51 kore 3 setup I have now.And look for a smokin deal on some forgelines.would like to have it ready for paint jan.1,March 1 start assem.

WOW!, Some how I missed this thread, it looks great Scott. I think your really going to love this camaro when she's done. Speaking of that do you have a name for her yet?

After next sun. when I deliver the blue 69,I will have to finish it or walk.

Travis, Thank's. I kinda like the name SCRAPS. I have been building it from leftover's I had laying around, & some part's that I traded for over the last year.I am tying to stay on a budget.But if I sell the LS2 and go w/ more motor that might kill that deal.Just going to keep plugging along.

I say go with more motor. I thought going from 500 hp to 620 was going to be intimidating but its just more fun. Only i still dont know what traction is like on 200 tread wear tires.

Benz silver would be cool with black wheels. I've been on this black wheel kick lately.

I can see where your headed with this thing and have a feeling it will be seeing alot of events. Go gettem Scott!!

everbody doing Black center's.

If I go w/forgeline's Ilike the gunmetal center's w/gloss clear & brushed rim's w/gloss clear and hidden hardare.Going to put some hoosiers R6's on the fikse's.Other than the wheels I want the car to real plain jane.Sleeper like

[Track Junky]

I am definitely liking the R6 direction but how are you going to make Optima next year if you run Hoosiers. With the trailor hitch set up I thought you were going to try and hit a couple GG auto-x's and win your way into Optima.
