Hiya folks.
Been lurking here for a while. Finally decided to join in.
I live in San Jose, CA. Know Tony Huntimer a bit via the local Camaro club.
I have a '68 Camaro that was given to me by m GP's. They bought it new in '68 from Courtesy Chevrolet here in San Jose.
327 coupe with the powerslide slushbox.
Right now its 100% stock. But once I pay off my freakin ex-wifes debts (damn Hawaii family court judge) I plan to go balls-out with a Pro-Touring build.
Hoping that this site will provide some valueable information in the project.
Talk at ya later.

Welcome aboard, True (Is that your real name?). We're glad to have you, but we're likely to demand pics of the car even if it is a 327/PG.

Welcome aboard True. The camaro sounds like a neat piece, especially with the history associated with it. I am not sure I could change much on such an original car.
BTW, some of us older guys are not too big on abbreviations around here. It takes us too long to figure out what you mean.
I'm still not sure I translated everything right. 
Oh, I for one can relate to the ex-wife thing. It took me about 12 years to get over my ex issues.
Enjoy the ride here and remember

Umm... Hey man. Welcome to the site. Do you show up to the Camaros Limited meetings? If so, you'll know my by the fact that I wear a site hat. All the damn time too. Don't be afraid to say hello if you see me there. I don't bite, despite my avatar. I'll be at the next meeting. Hope to see you there.

Well, I don't have any real reservations about modifying the car. It's a standard 327 coupe. If it was an SS or Z28 I'd have to give it some serious thought, but this is a dime-a-dozen car.
I've always had a "thing" for the old Trans-Am cars. In HS I owned a '69 Cougar that I attempted to emulate the Gurney/Jones Courgars from the old Trans Am series with...lame attempt mind you.

This site rawks! Almost makes me want to build my '68 as a pure race car, but I really want to drive it on the street too!
