      One Camaro is never enough!

      I finally found a suitable replacement for my previous 1998 black WS6 Formula. I decided I would rather have another old Camaro to build into an LS1 powered hotrod. The plan is to put my forged 347ci LS1 (from Rapid Motorsports) and Procharger D1SC in this 1967 Camaro. I will also convert it to an RS front/rear. The car is very clean, mostly restored and has some nice pro-touring suspension parts already. SSBC front/rear disks, Hotchkis sways, Bilstein shocks, AGR steering box, Global west subs etc... with a T56 6-speed and 300 rwhp SBC. Here it is shown with the 16" wheels, and the 18x8 and 18x10 iForged wheels.









      You may have noticed that I went with a more traditional wheel for the hugger orange convertible. I custom ordered this setup from www.Tomzwheels.com and they are 18x8 and 18x10 Torque-Thrust 2 "Classics". I'm still planning on putting the LS7/T56 into this convertible.

      Looks very nice, congrats! Do you ever regret selling your old 69?

      No regrets, I just keep buying and building more cars. They tend to get a little better each time, from lessons learned.

      Nice, I'll follow your progress closely since I am putting an LS1 in my 67 as well.

      Glad to see you finally found one. I can not wait to see it finished and tearing up the streets of Houston.

      Great wheel choice on the 69. The 67 is beautiful.I agree it needs to be lowered but I'm sure you already have that under control. Either way you have two great looking camaros.

      I'm definitely going to lower both cars. The '69 is also too high in the rear. I already ordered some of the parts to do it!

      You take very nice pictures sir. And good taste in cars. Your choice of women ain't bad either. Did you get the GTO done yet?

      Still waiting on the turbo kit for the GTO to ship. Maybe in the next month.

      What is the backspacing on those Torque Thrusts? 5.5 in the rear & 5 in the front?

      Thanks,
      Chris
