Hey guys/gals I'm in the process of receiving my first classic car, a 1968 Camaro! My first car was american and since then I've been addicted to BMW's, both street and race cars. I got out of car racing a few years ago and made the switch over to kart racing, what a blast.


Anyway the wife also loves classic cars so we figured now is the time. My Camaro was picked up yesterday from CA and should arrive to me early next week!


As soon as I take delivery I plan on doing a photo shoot so I'll post some pics then.


For now here is a pic from the seller:

Cya around and thanks in advance for all of the questions I'll ask in the near future, haha!!

Hell yea.. there are quite a few 1st gen guys out there!.. some cool folks too!

Ls swap?..

Well then watch out for folks in that area who claim to be able to do LS swaps.. lot of shops cold lying out there and racking up money on peoples ignorance.. believe it.


specially that I did my Ls swap myself recently.. and drove it!


what a feeling!

Yeah, I've noticed that just from trying to source a motor! "Buy from us we'll install it and do a custom harness".

That's why I said someone to come help me, like yourself! haha. :cheers:
