Hello everyone my name is John Rogers.After a year of lurking and learning I have finally started the long overdue re-construction of my long-suffering 80 Camaro. I've owned this car since 89 and drove daily until 96. I did the paint and body in 1990 and the 350/350 combo in 93. I hope to build it to be a reliable, comfortable, and strong running street car. Due to limited funds it will be a long process. Future plans include :

LS1/4l60e conversion
Updated Brakes
Wheels Tires
New gauges and seats


For now I am in the process of installing all new suspension and painting the under-carriage.( POR15 Great stuff). A new 3.73 Posi is already installed. Hotchkis TVS system and front end kit from PST are waiting to go in. AGR steering box will be ordered soon.

This site has been a great source of inspiration and ideas. The administrators here all do a wonderful job of providing us with a great place to explore our little corner of the automotive world. Thanks Guys.

Here are a few pictures of the current re-construction. Hope they are not to big.
