Nice Camaro Jeff, I drove a SS396/325 Chevelle….fun car…then my world turned upside down with a 68 Charger.
Funny how cars transform Jim. Here is a picture a year later after the wheels were changed, the 302 came out and a new crate motor 427/425 with all L-88 cam and valvetrain was installed. A set 0f 4.88s went in, Moroso Cable drive tach and shutoff (pretty rare and its still laying here somewhere), Hookers, Lakewood,11 lbs Hayes Aluminum Flywheel. 11.80s was pretty good back then for high school kid. This picture was taken in my parents driveway which was a hundred miles from my home of Zanesville. Bet that drive there was sweet with those 4.88's .. LOL
BTW. The yellow Z in the first picture was owned by a kid named Lawson and shortly later had dual 4's and a tunnel ram sticking through that hood, but my big block ate him for lunch. .. Good times
