It's a 1981 camaro with a rebuild 350, t350, 2.73 rear end, 4" cowl hood, American Racing Wheels, Grant Steering wheel, kicker sub and amp. It's a work in progress and will take time since im a student but I know this isn't about future mods but I have lots of plans for it. The big mods are adding a 454 BB, t400 or 700r4 tranny, beefed up 10 bolt or 12 bolt rear with 3.55 gears, nice suspension, new paint job, and nice Crager S/S wheels with 10" wide rear tires.

It's a 1976 Camaro... Used to have the little V6 in it but now has a 350 SBC. It's been rebuilt about 8,500 miles ago. Also it's been painted from yellow with black stripes to what it is now. Here are the list of mods done to the car. More to come very soon...
350 Small Block Chevy, Holley 650, Edelbrock Performer Intake, K&N Air Filter, TH-350, Long Tube Headers with Magnaflow Mufflers...

1971BB427




I've owned my 1971 SS396 Camaro since 1973. Engine is a L88 427ci with TRw .060" over forged pistons. 284/286 duration and .528" lift. Edelbrock Torker intake, Doug Thorley headers. 3:42 rewar with Power Trax Locker, traction bars, and outboard bearing kit.
Trans is a TH350 with Transgo full competition kit, Corvette clutch pack, and B&M shifter.
Custom interior with 4 pt. rollbar. Paint is GM dark stealth gray metallic pearl, with back pearl SS stripes. Except for paint I did the entire restoration in my driveway! Still more to finish, but then it wont ever really be done!

I've owned this 1974 Z28 Type LT Camaro with matching numbers TH400 transmission and L82 engine for about three years now. I removed and stored the TH400 and swapped in a T-56 five speed last summer. Working on a top end swap and possibly a new lower end with a Bowtie or Dart block if all goes well. Dart 215cc runner and 64cc heads, Comp Cams XE274 full mechanical roller cam with Crower roller lifters, Comp Ultra Pro Magnum 1.6 7/16th SS roller rockers, PSI springs with Manley valves. ARP hardware throughout, 10.25:1 CR, Total Seal Gapless rings, Weiand 8501 Stealth Air Strike intake, Holley 750 3310 carb, MSD ignition and distributor. Centerforce DFX ceramic clutch system, RAM billet flywheel and adjustable master along with a Dynotech Monster driveshaft with 1350 joints going through a 3.42 rear but going to a 4.56 soon hopefully.




Now as always you guys can do pretty much whatever you want to in order to get votes. But don't go posting threads to vote for you in every section, that's got to stay in OT.

Voting ends at midnight central time on February 28th.


Good luck to you all, now lets get it on!

I still think my favorite out the list is 1971BB427. That car is straight out badass.

Here's some of the update from last time:

I've owned this 1974 Z28 Type LT Camaro with matching numbers TH400 transmission and L82 engine for about three years now. I removed and stored the TH400 and swapped in a T-56 five speed last fall. Working on a top end swap and possibly a new lower end with a Bowtie or Dart block if all goes well. Dart 215cc runner and 64cc heads, Comp Cams XE274 full mechanical roller cam (.603/.610 lift with 236/242 duration @.050) with Crower roller lifters, Comp Ultra Pro Magnum 1.6 7/16th roller rockers, PSI springs with Manley valves. Lunati double roller timing chain with torrington setup, ARP hardware throughout, 10.25:1 CR 8.3:1 DCR, Total Seal Gapless rings, Weiand 8501 Stealth Air Strike intake, Holley 750 3310 carb, MSD ignition and distributor. A Griffin 3 row aluminum radiator keeps the system cool at all times. The transmission setup is a T-56 with Centerforce DFX ceramic clutch system, RAM billet flywheel and adjustable master along with a Dynotech Monster driveshaft with 1350 joints going through a 3.42 rear but going to a 4.56 soon hopefully. The exhaust is comprised of Flowmaster 50's with 3 inch mandrel bent pipes and Hooker Competition headers. I also have NOS kit that I haven't installed but looking towards a 100 shot if I do go that route. Mickey Thompson Sportsman tires are wrapped around the original rims.

Hopefully after I get the driveline and suspension where I want it I can start working on the body.

Yeah I agree Val's '71 camaro is my fav too

I just got a rear spoiler for my car and am going to paint it today and hope to have some new pics of my car early next week and i also got some nice Cragar S/S wheels but won't put those on until summer

I've had my car for about 1 1/2 years. It's had its engine rebuilt and only has about 61,000 miles on it. I love cars and always have but its my first real project car. I will be working on it slowly but again, plan on adding a 454 BB, either a turbo 400 or 700r4 with shift kits and corvette servo's, and either build up my 10 bolt or get a 12 bolt rear w/ 3.55 gears and posi. My car right now though, has a near stock 350 with True dual exhaust and Flowmaster Mufflers. I also have an edelbrock intake and carb along with a 4" cowl hood and heavy duty radiator. It has been running well with nothing but a few things that i fixed when i first got it like got a new wiper motor, new belts and hoses, new MSD distributor and tires.

You guys know you can go out and campaign for your car. Put something in your sig, start a thread in OT, get a campaign manager. Just a few ideas to get the forum into this.
