Hope you are well. I am selling my freshly built (350 miles) ground up pro-touring 68 Camaro. Here are some specs on the car along with a link to an Internet picture hosting site. If you have seen these pictures before look again as I have added quite a few more today, Sunday Feb. 10th.
Camaro Details:
BODY \ PAINT: COMPLETLY RUST FREE BODY. THE CAMARO HAS ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL PANELS/DOORS AND WAS A GREAT DONOR CAR TO START WITH. THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD THE CAR PAINTED A COUPLE YEARS AGO BUT THE CAMARO NEVER SAW THE LIGHT OF DAY AS IT WAS A PROJECT WITH NO END IN SIGHT. IT HAS A BEAUTIFUL, TWO STAGE PAINT JOB (BURIED IN HIGH-QUALITY CLEAR) AND IS SEBRING SILVER WITH BLACK STRIPES. THE FIREWALL WAS FLUSHED WITH A DETROIT SPEED AND ENGINEERING PLATE. THE FLOOR WAS COVERED WITH SOUND DEADENING MATERIAL TO KEEP THE SOUND AND HEAT TO A MINIMUM. ADDED MARQUEZ DESIGN BILLET GAS CAP. THE BODY IS VERY STRAIGHT AND ALL GAPS LINE UP GREAT.
MINITUB: PROFESSIONALLY DONE AND IT LOOKS GREAT!! THE DETROIT SPEED AND ENGINEERING WHEEL TUBS LOOK LIKE THEY CAME FROM GM EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT THEY HOUSE HUGE 335/30 MICHELIN PILOTS.
REAR SUSPENSION: THE REAR WAS UPDATED WITH THE LATEST TRICK SUSPENSION, ALSON CHASSISWORKS G-BAR. THE G-BAR IS A CANTED FOUR BAR REAR SUSPENSION THAT IS LIGHT YEARS AHEAD OF STOCK LEAF SPRINGS. THIS TRICK SUSPENSION USES VARISHOCK QS1 ALUMINUM COILOVERS THAT ARE ADJUSTABLE AND ALSO ALLOW EASY CHANGES IN RIDE HEIGHT.
FRONT STEERING/SUSPENSION: THE FRONT /STEERING/SUSPENSION WAS UPDATED WITH A TON OF TRICK PARTS: FULLY ADJUSTABLE TUBULAR UPPER CONTROL ARMS, SCREW IN HOWE NASCAR TALL BALL JOINTS, GLOBAL WEST COIL SPRINGS, BILSTEIN FRONT SHOCKS, HUGE HOCHKIS SWAY BAR, KRC ALUMINUM POWER STEERING PUMP, KRC REMOTE ALUMINUM RESERVIOR, HIGH PRESSURE STAINLESS BRAIDED LINES AND A QUICK RATIO POWER STEERING BOX. THE BODY IS MOUNTED TO THE CHASSIS WITH SOLID BODY MOUNTS AND THE FRAME IS TIED TOGETHER WITH GLOBAL WEST SUB FRAME CONNECTORS. THE HANDLING ON THIS CAMARO IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS!
ENGINE: THIS IS A CUSTOM PRO BUILT 580 ci MOTOR. BUILT BY rebirdraceengines.com. THIS IS NOT A GM CRATE MOTOR! THIS CUSTOM BUILT BULLET HAS A DIFFERENT BORE/STROKE COMBO THAN A GM CRATE MOTOR, 4.5" STROKE x 4.53" BORE. THE LONGER STROKE PROVIDES MORE TORQUE AND MORE HORSEPOWER AT A USABLE STREET RPM. THIS STREET MOTOR IS FULL OF KILLER PARTS AND OF COURSE RUNS ON PUMP GAS WITH NO ISSUES BECAUSE OF ITS MILD COMPRESSION OF 10:1. THE BOTTOM END IS ALL 4340 STEEL AND THE BLOCK IS A MERLIN II. THE HEADS ARE FULLY PORTED DART ALUMINUM HEADS TOPPED OFF WITH A FULLY PORTED DART INTAKE AND A TRICKED OUT AED 950 HP HOLLEY CARB. THE VALVE TRAIN IS HANDLED BY A COMP CAMS ROLLER SHAFT, COMP CAMS ROLLER LIFTERS, COMP CAMS STAINLESS FULL ROLLER ROCKERS, COMP CAMS PUSHRODS AND AN ALUMINIUM STUD GIRDLE. THE IGNITION IS A FULL MSD SYSTEM WITH A PRO BILLET DISTRIBUTOR, MSD BLASTER III COIL, MSD 6M BOX AND MSD PLUG WIRES. THE CAR WAS DYNO TUNED BY A WELL KNOWN SPEED SHOP IN SAN JOSE, CA. I HAVE DYNO SHEET THAT SHOW THIS CAR MAKES 638 FT. LBS. OF TORQUE AND 593 HP AT THE REAR WHEELS. AND, IT IDLES AT 900 RPM, RUNS COOL AND IS A *****CAT UNTIL YOU ROMP ON IT. THE DYNO IS FROM NEW ZEALAND AND TO THE DYNO MANUFACTURER ANY DRIVE WHEEL IS A FLYWHEEL SO PLEASE DO NOT BE CONFUSED BY THAT PORTION OF THE DYNO PICTURE (DYNO PRINT OUT IS ONE OF THE PICTURES I HAVE INCLUDED ON THE INTERNET PICTURE HOSTING SITE) IF YOU LOOK AT THE PICTURE IT ACTUALLY SAYS CHASSIS DYNO. AS I HAD HOPED, THE CAMARO IS REALLY QUICK AND CAN KILL THE REAR TIRES AT WILL.
EXHAUST: THE HEADERS ARE HIGH DOLLAR COATED DYNATECH PIPES CONNECTED TO A 3" SPINTECH EXHAUST SYSTEM. THE MUFFLERS ARE LARGE SPINTECH XL TO KEEP THE NEIGHBORS AND COPS A LITTLE HAPPIER. THERE ARE CURRENTLY NO TAILPIPES PAST THE REAREND SO IT DOES HAVE A WICKED SOUND.
TRANSMISSION/CLUTCH: THE TRANNY IS A TKO 600 5 SPEED WITH A .64 OVERDRIVE. THE FIVE SPEED OFFERS SUPER QUICK RATIOS FOR DRIVING IN TOWN AND A BIG OVERDRIVE FOR HIGHWAY CRUISING. THE TRANNY MATES TO THE BIG MOTOR WITH A SFI STEEL FLYWHEEL, THE CLUTCH DUTIES ARE HANDLED BY A KILLER MCLEOD UNIT (SMOOTTH WITH NO CHATTER) AND THE BELLHOUSING IS A MCLEOD SFI BLOWPROOF HOUSING. THE CLUTCH IS ACTUATED BY A TILTON HYDRAULIC CLUTCH MASTER AND A MCLEOD HYDRAULIC THROWOUT BEARING. THE SMOOTH HYDRAULIC CLUTCH ALLOWS YOU TO RUN A MUCH STRONGER CLUTCH ON THE STREET WITHOUT BURNING DOWN YOUR LEG AT EVERY STOP LIGHT.
REAREND: THE REAR IS A FULL BLOWN MOSER ENGINEERING 12 BOLT WITH 33 SPLINE AXLES, 3.73 GEAR, 1350 YOKE, 1/2" STUDS AND BIG FORD HOUSING ENDS. THE REAR IS BULLETPROOF AND READY FOR YOU RIGHT FOOT!
BRAKES: THE BRAKES CONSISTS OF A COMPLETE WILWOOD DISK BRAKE SYSTEM WITH A PARKING BRAKE. ALL ROTORS ARE DRILLED, SLOTTED AND COATED FOR KILLER LOOKS. THE MASTER CYLINDER IS AN ALUMINUM WILWOOD PIECE THAT DEPRESSES EASILY AND PROVIDES A GREAT FEEL FOR THE ROAD. THE CAR STOPS ON A DIME AND THE BRAKES ARE VERY QUIET (NO SQUEACKS). ALL LINES THAT CARRY FLUID ARE STEEL BRAIDED. THE PARKING BRAKE CABLES ARE MADE BY LOKAR AND PROVIDE A VERY SMOOTH ENGAGEMENT AND DO NOT HANG BELOW THE EXHAUST LIKE THE FACTORY SYSTEM.
WHEELS/TIRES: THE WHEELS ARE A BEAUTIFUL THREE PIECE DESIGN BY FORGELINE AND ARE THE ULTIMATE FOR A STREET CAR. THE WHEELS HAVE POLISHED, DEEP LIPS AND FORGED ALUMINUM CENTERS COLORED IN GUN METAL. THE GUN METAL COLOR REALLY BOUNCES WELL OFF OF THE SEBRING SILVER PAINT. THE WHEELS ARE 18x8.5 FRONT AND 18x12 REAR WITH 335/30 MICHELIN PILOT SPORT TIRES.
COOLING/PULLEYS: THE COOLING CHORES ARE HANDLED BY A HUGE C&R NASCAR BRAND RADIATOR. THE SYSTEM IS COMPLETE WITH AN OVERFLOW/RECOVERY SYSTEM, TWIN ELECTRIC FANS AND AN ALUMINUM WATER PUMP. THE SERPINTINE PULLEYS ARE POLISHED ALUMINUM FROM KRC AND LOOK GREAT. THE CAMARO RUNS COOL IN TOWN OR ON THE HWY. IT NORMALLY CRUISES AT 180 DEGREES. AND ON A HOT 90+ WILL CREEP UP TO 190 IN BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC THEN GO RIGHT BACK DOWN TO 180 OR LESS ONCE YOU START MOVING.
INTERIOR: THE INTERIOR IS ALL NEW AND COMPLETE WITH A CENTER CONSOLE, CARPET, NEW SKINS, DASH, PACKAGE TRAY, HEADLINER, DOOR PANELS, MOMO LEATHER STEERING WHEEL, VINTAGE AIR A/C AND HEATER, AND FULL OF AUTOMETER ULTRA LITE GAUGES. SEATS ARE VERY COOL PRO-CAR \ SCAT PRO-RALLEY SEATS THAT ARE VERTICALLY STITCHED TO MATCH THE REAR SEAT, HAVE GREAT LUMBAR AND MATCH THIS CAR PERFECT. I ALSO HAD THE TRUNK UPHOLSTERED IN A COLOR MATCHING SCHEME. THE SPEEDO IS A PROGRAMMABLE 5" ELECTRIC GAUGE WITH DIGITAL ODOMETER. THE FOUR GAUGES IN THE CENTER CONSOLE INCLUDE A CLOCK, FUEL, OIL PRESSURE AND WATER TEMP. THE SHIFTER BOOT IS A NASCAR SFI NOMEX BOOT AND OFFERS A COOL ALTERNATIVE TO THE BORING RUBBER STYLE.
There is much more to tell but that should give you some basics. I took the car it to Goodies Speed Shop (www.goodies-speedsop.com) here in San Jose for a once over and for Dyno tuning. They can serve as a great reference for this car.
Here is a link to that online picture hosting site. To really see pictures of this car you need to click on any one picture to start a slide show of 5X8 sized pictures and then once inside the slide show you can click on any 5X8 picture to see it full size. Some of the pictures of the trunk are before I had it upholstered and some of the pictures of the engine are before the Vintage Air Heat and Cooling was added. You may have to cut this link out of this document and paste it into your browser but it will get you to the picture hosting site. Here is the link:

At any rate, the car is beautiful, monstrously fast, reliable and just a killer car. This is a true pro-tour car, built with only the best parts that can run 10's all day long with the A\C on and is docile enough for my 93 lb. girlfriend to drive. I also have some small Quicklime videos so you can hear the car. They come from my girlfriends phone so the quality sucks but at least you can hear how quickly this car grabs revs. Pretty cool considering it makes so much HP this Camaro makes. Last word on this...turn up your speakers because the audio is quiet, and, because it sounds good loud!

This car would cost a tick over $100,000 to build and it is absolutely beautiful. I am selling for $67,500 firm. Please shoot me an email at [email protected] or shoot me a PM. I am located in the SF Bay Area .
Thanks,
