Hi Cam guys/gals,

I've got the Camaro Bug like the rest of you.

Got a ground up '68 drop top, with few miles, and fairly well optioned, with my orig 8-track being my pride and joy! Got 1500 tapes to play.

I did most of the mechanical...but left the body stuff to the pros. Not my game! The chassis is PC'd as well as the inner tubs... and the front/back fenders were galvanized...so no rust, eh? It was a mess body wise when I got it...so new metal all around. Floors and pans were good though. It ended up BN yellow with a black power top, with BB stripes and flat hood inserts since it was an early build.

It runs on a fresh 350, with camels, 360 breather, ceramic exhaust, and a 350 tranny, on the tree.

Always ready to learn new stuff, and ways to do it. Will chime in if I know something about what is asked, but have learned more when I listened/read.

Jim seemed like a great guy on the TC site, and invited me over...always ready to meet new Cam buffs.

Happy motoring, :beers:

Posting pictures is real easy to do here on FG. Anytime you start a new thread or reply to an existing thread there in an "upload attachment" section right below the reply text box. Simply choose the browse button, find your picture file and choose it then pick the "add the file button". You can continue the process for several pictures(i don't recall the limit) then you can choose each specific picture and insert it into your reply wherever you would like to using the "place inline" button. You don't need to worry about the file size of the picture becasue the software here automatically resizes for you when the picture is uploaded, make it real simple!!

Example: Here is my Z.....I know it's a 2nd Gen but it is still a Camaro!

The consensous here is the smurf's turn purple. It's about time for a new tag line.......
Maybe I could use "women never tell their age ...... and men never act it."
