This is how it looked as delivered.

I've been pretty quiet about it, but this past Saturday


It runs and drives, too.


I’ve been pretty quiet about it, but this past Saturday I finally got my hands on a second-gen Camaro and you’re getting the first look at our newest project. I couldn't be happier; it's pretty clean and has a lot of potential. Rust is minimal, mostly on the lower passenger side fender, but other than that it drives and sounds great.


Now if you’re wondering what I have planned for it, let’s just say it'll be clean, but no show car. It’ll have a fairly stout small-block, but it won’t be a drag car. Instead, expect to see something that can do a little of everything, including Open Track events. More importantly, it’s going to be a true daily driver, which will require it to have excellent street manners, deal with 100+ Valley temperatures during the brutal summer months, and be able to idle through the horrendous stop-and-go LA traffic.

The good news; no major rust to deal with.

For the time being, I’m waiting on the title to register and insure it, but here’s where I could use your input. Now that you know where we want to take our project, lets see some of your ideas on the direction we should go. Also, we need a project name for our newcomer; so post your thoughts and potential names here or e-mail me at chevyhi@sourceinterlink.com. The lucky winner will receive a CHP jacket and believe me when I say that these are hard to come by, even for us!
