79 camaro z28 lifetime project

[7d9_z28]

Hey everyone, this sites awesome! (Kyle brought me here - Recovery One!) figured id post my car, since im in the process of getting a truck... my lifetime project, my first car ( i got it before i got my license, when i was 15) and will spend the rest of my life changing it over and over again... its a 79 camaro z28, currently has the original 350/4speed (borg warner super t-10) factory 3:73 posi rear... i have everything ive ever taken off of it, currently has a weiand stealth intake and holley 650 carb, cheap flowtech headers with purple hornies (its loud, and i love that) N50-15 tires out back on cragars. interior is shot, body needs help. have a 78 350 4bo;t main im building for it, but ultimately will have an old chevy 409 in it! Kyle bought and transported the hood (fiberglass lift off l-88 hood, $30) it all needs alot of work but thats what my whole lifes for (well, after my wife, and work, and sleep)

409's are preaty rare, only seen a hand full in running condition, expensive from what i've seen too, but if that's what you want go for it man it's your rig run what you want. the gen 2 f bodies are by far my favorite, (been wanting one for a while just haven't found one in my price range) and i know i wauldn't leave the stock drive train in there either, keep updated on what you swap out and keep the pics comming

thats sad..... looks like i really need to update the bumpers then... and tear off all the fenders and make a full tube chasis and call it a buggy instead of a truck so people will stop copyin me dammit....

[7d9_z28]

And i need to finish my truck and work on MY CAR which THIS thread is about... got front axles and pig in today, not much else
