The
intention or purpose for the build is to
create a first gen Camaro that is truly a
daily driver. I�m interested in a car I can
drive hard. I plan to drive it like a rental
car. So, I bought a car with a fairly solid
body and plan to upgrade it so that I don�t
have the typical mechanical problems
associated with a 60�s muscle car. I want to
be able to jump in it and drive it without
being worried that something could break or
I could get a door ding or scratch. This is
a car I plan to drive to work, the grocery
store, and pick up the kids.
I still have many more decisions to be made
on items like, brakes, wheels, fuel
injection etc... However, here is what is in
the works.
