Hey everyone, today I'm going to post some newer pictures of my car and give you some more details on the story of the car and the car itself.

If you would like to know about the cars history and how I managed to get this beauty you can read below, but if you just wanna see pictures I'll post them below the history.

NOTE: If you want to make on offer on the car, pm me.

History:
Alright, a little history about this car, I am the 3rd owner of this car and it was originally bought in 1970 in Indianapolis, Indiana. The car was a base Chevy Camaro, it was a Dark Forest Green and had green interior. The original owner owned it until 1995, then he sold it to a young man who took it and changed alot to it. This owner had it repainted, had the motor rebuilt and had black interior put into it, he owned it until my dad and I purchased it in 2011. Since we've owned it we upgraded the motor from a 350 to a 383 stroker and added tons of performance upgrades, we also rebuilt the front end, and put in modern suspension. This car is my baby, my daily driver as well. I've had some of the best moments of my life in this car and I hope you guys will enjoy seeing it.

383 Stroker
Turbo 350 Transmission (3 speed)
Demon: Speed Demon Street Carburetor

Videos (Thanks for reminding me Gigahertz)
Note: Camera doesn't do car justice, this thing is loud, and has an amazing rumble due to my exhaust.



Update:
7/20/14: Installed new Power steering pump and alternator, all chrome too.
7/23/14: Car will be in shop getting entire front end rebuilt. (Would do do it myself but I'm too busy)
8/2/14: Replaced differential fluid and got a new gasket for the diff. Replaced Spark plugs and installed new Holley Fuel Pump
8/14/14: Replaced Edelbrock Race Carb with a Speed Demon street carb. Also replaced distributor. Cars runs twice as good, and is way faster with run carb on it.
8/30/14: Rear end went out finally (It was original), so I replaced all the internals and now its running great again.
9/15/14: Full check up
9/22/14: New Gas Tank and headlights
10/4/14: New Headliner
10/24/14: Got rear ended, insurance took care of everything and shes all fixed up.

Those beetles can be really fast is you drop a big enough motor into them, I love to see that thing in action.

That shouldn't be a car, it should be in an art gallery...

Seriously, I love a lotta Camaros, but this one is just beyond beautiful! Very lucky to own such a car!

But daily drive car? Bet she eats fuel like no tomorrow!

Easily one of the nicest cars I've ever seen, and I like a lotta cars. You've made a really good job of this Camaro man. I can see why it's your baby. Really nice to see someone who respects a classic as much as you do.

Amazing looking and amazing sounding (seen your youtube video before) car. Serious 10/10.
