Default 68 Camaro, Kind of

We are going to restore this 1968 camaro. We stared calling it Toast, because this this is almost done, as in gone.







She sure ain't pretty.



Here is the parts list we got from Auto Metal Direct (AMD).
They are going to help us with the body parts on the body restoration.
This is going to be a track day car.

Man that is awesome and I admire your ambition. Another one rises to live again. Maybe call it the zombie since it'll be the living dead. lol

Seriously, that's admirable ambition you've got. I have to ask why though? Why this car considering it's condition? Good luck. Do you have an overall plan for suspension and drivetrain etc? Welcome to the site.

The salt air down here in Florida is brutal.

We are planning on running all DSE parts.
A mild LS motor 400-450hp.
4 speed or 5 speed, its going to be a pure track car.
Bare minimum as far a comfort items.
Gauges
Two race seats, full roll cage, video system.

We are centrally located in Florida and there are about 40 or more track days within
2 hours drive and Palm Beach International Raceway http://racepbir.com/ is about 15 min from us.
