All SS Camaros start out as Z28's and were then sent out to SLP for modification.

Congrats on your SS. Welcome to the SLP Club.

You mean like tech schools? I've known some great techs out of Wyotech.


My SLP Bilsteins should be in today! It will be so much better with new shocks, front end stuff and an alignment after nearlyy 160k! Lol

Just an update. Shocks in alignment done (toe was .57 out!). Drives and handles much better. Looking at the bumpstops for 17" wheels at hanks next as mine are only metal plates.
Think I'm just gonne do the minor body work and keep her white but add some stripes. Think the hockey sticks are too much for the sides? I'm still debating coating the wheels versus some new ones. Not sure what work it would be to get 20" wheels on it yet.

Just got some new Falkens on it today and set to go into paint next week. SS stripes and emblems ordered should be here about the time it gets outta paint!
I'm gonna go for a dark metal flake gun metal grey on the wheels with new black and blue center SS'. I *think it should look "*****in" (yeah everyone calls it the "*****in' Camaro" after the tune here!


I'm gonna try to have the small wear on the leather seats patched (anyone had success w/ this?) and then all that's really left is the cracked dash and window switch panels.... I'm about to gorilla snot them down. Any better ideas?

Coming up soon; have a few little tweaks in the garage waiting to go on when it's back for some uniqueness. I'll show them after their on and painted though (just in case!)

Just confirmed today: it's being used for a Hot Cars and Girls photo shoot in mid March... you won't want to miss
