Just another New Guy
Hi everyone
I've got a 84 Camaro berlinetta with the 305 in it. It's not drivable right now, but I decided to join a forum to hopefully get some ideas. I bought it for 350 bucks out of a guys driveway, he said it wasn't running at the time. I got it home and checked fluids, put a battery in it and it fired right up! it's definitely a work in progress. Here's what it looked like in the guys driveway
I don't have any current pics of it yet, but I will shortly, once I find my camera.
Also, my dad has a 69 Z/28 RS Camaro w/a rebuilt 327

:Gets on soap box:
Trim the grass away from the car. It will carry moisture to the car and not allow dry air under it. This will speed up the rusting process. If you do not have a cover get a tarp and put it over the T-tops. They most likely do not seal well and water inside the car will rot out the floor fast. There are ways to stop that rust from growing until you get a chance to fix it. Post over in the third gen section and we can go over it.

Looks like a fun project. Wecome

Immediate plans are just to get it driving, I'm working on getting some tires for it, then I'll see what else is wrong and go from there.
It's no longer in the grass, those pics where the ones the guy sent me before I bought it 3 or 4 months ago. It's been in my garage ever since, just waiting for me to get some money
