      New Here/ Old Hot Rodder In New York

      Heard a lot about this place! Pretty new to the computer world.
      I have a 1971 camaro Z/28 Mercedes Iridium silver with black stripes. Before I go any further, I need to explain how I acquired this car. About 17 years ago, God blessed my wife and I with TRIPLET boys. So, as you can imagine, the toys had to go and the hardship had to come!!! About three years ago, my youngest brother, who lives in Arizona and has a succesful muscle car resto business called me and asked me to go to his web site. When it opened up, A picture of a beautiful 2nd gen camaro popped up. He asked me what I thought and I said WOW. I love 2nd gen camaros. Well, he said good. cause I built this one for you!! He never asked me for a penny understanding my hardship raising triplets. He did some job on it too. it has a 350, 350 hp with DART heads, comp cam, holley carb and manifold, hooker headers, richmond 5-speed, 10 bolt with eaton posi and strange axles. 17' torque thrust 2, with 4 wheel disc. brakes. It is an original split bumper and a rust free arizona car that did get the rotissoree treatment. The car has made dealing with life, three college enrollments a little easier to deal with.
