Default Long time Camaro owner checking in

Hello Camaro Forums,
I have owned my 1968 Camaro since 1985. It was my 2nd car and was my daily driver through 1989. I have replaced the engine twice and had it painted twice and it is still not done. Current configuration is a 355 small block with the Edelbrock Performer RPM package, 700 cfm Holley double pumper, Hooker Super Comps with duals and an X-pipe. I did the Kiesler 5 Speed Tremec conversion a few years ago. I have a 12 bolt with a 3.73 posi and slapper bars. I have disc brakes all around and 17" Chip Foose wheels with 275-50-17 in back and 225-50-17 in front. The paint is Fusion Orange metallic with metallic black Z28 stripes. I am not allowed to post pictures yet, but I will once I am allowed.
Future plans call for a full aftermarket front subframe with rack and pinion, 13" brakes and negative camber gain suspension , air conditioning and an LS engine swap.

Almost forgot, my daily driver is a 2005 GTO with Kook's longtubes, Flowmaster catback with X-pipe, K&N intake and Diablosport tune. I am in the process of finding a dealer who can get me a 2012 Camaro ZL-1 to replace the GTO.

Here, I finally have a picture from a show we did at work of the Camaro. The picture restrictions are pretty tight on this site.

Welcome Aston. Picture restrictions are tight with uploaded images. If you have or create a photobucket account, you can copy and paste the "IMG" link here and show larger pics.
