I'm not new to Forum's, or Car's. Just these 2 (the camaro and this forum) ahahah

My Grammer on forums is not amazing, just because I type like im Talking to you, not like im writing a book.
(it drive's me nuts when people get mad over how you type, typing like an english teacher bores me)

Anyways on to the Speil.
I'm a Former Dirt Track Guy (raced dirt half mile for 5 years, in street stocks. mostly mid 80s montes/cutlass regals)
So i know about small blocks and stuff like that.

I also built a Drag monte in the past, i miss that car .
I got into the Honda CRX scene for a While
Im pretty known on crxcommunity.com .

I Just missed my old american muscle, RWD tires that spin without spitting parts.

And not to mention, Budget Horsepower (theres no replacement for displacement)
So whut up?

I'm Coveted, I just Purchased a 1982 T Top camaro Roller
The body is SOLID no major rust issues, no dents.

And im really loving this car right now.

My goal is going to be a Drag car, that i summer drive.
No show car's here

i don't know alot about the car, other then it came with an extra posi rear.
its a Roller (no motor or trans)
and it was a manual transmission car (i can drive stick but ill be putting an auto in it)

auto wins drag races

Apparently (i ran the vin, still need someone to do a full carfax for me tho)
It was a 4cyl camaro, which is CRAZY, but the Car has been Linked (front sub frame to the Rear)

and obviously prior to me, had a Small Block in it.

I know, this is useless without pics, the car sat in primer for 2 years, so its a lovely "i need to be sanded, primered and painted"

combo of grey and brown ahahaha. no rot tho, just some surface discoloration

Which is cool, these car's are considered a classic now right, 25 years?

Anyways ive babbled on enough.

welcome to the forums
I dont call the 80's classic. I call the late 60's early 70's classic, before a lot of smog, and electronics. Maybe because thats what I know. I stoped working as a mechanic in the mid 80's because I didnt want to learn the puters on the new cars.
Where are you from?

 

Surely they wont be a classic like the 60's n 70's which are now antiques i believe?

but i just refered to it as anything 25 and older

im from Sanborn New york, which is why the car being solid is amazing.

western new york is like the Salt belt.

Thanks for the welcome

 

cool
So I have antiques great that means I can get more for them. just funning with you, I'm lucky to be So Ca I dont see to many rusted cars
Hope you stay around. you can find a lot of help here and ,with your experiance with race cars then you could help others on here aswell [sm=gears.gif]
