Just wanted to post up my progress on my 68 camaro. I found the car at a salvage auction and what a mess. It had a carb fire but other than that just needed some TLC, I hated to see the car there so now Im trying to bring here back. Enjoy!!


How I found her.

Since it just going to be a driver we rebuilt the 350ci 4bolt main that was in it. 60 over with a RV cam headers, intake and a little dress up kit.

Thanks guys!! I just got the bottom half done with the chassi black so now I can work on the firewall and get ready to do the body work. Tomorrow I will sand the new gas tank down and clear it, to give it that brushed look. Heres a pic from today.
