Bought my perfect 68 Camaro!

[jcal87]

After casually searching for the past two years I finally found my perfect car. I sold my last one about 5 years ago and have had the itch to get another one ever since. Luckily a member on this forum saw my WTB post and reached out to me. I am very excited about this car and don't foresee me ever selling it now that I have it. Pics and stats below.

Hey I know that car! Rode in it at Run to the Coast a few years back. Awesome car!! Wished I had bought it when it went up for sale the first time. You'll have a lot of fun with it...and let me know when you're ready to sell it. lol

:captain:

I love it very nice !

Do you know what brand part number quick connect steering hub you have?

[Flash68]

I know that car well... I have driven it. Rich Bermea of Road Touring Customs built that car in Gilroy.

It's a fun car with great parts!

Found an old clip of it:

Welcome to the family!!!!

Great looking car, Congrats! Would you happen to have any info on your back seat? Was it bought or built by an upholstery shop? If you've got any additional pics of it, that'd be awesome!

XLexusTech - thanks for the info! I've seen the Fesler seat but I hadn't seen the other one. That's a slick setup and the price is pretty good. Not to mention it puts some more distance between the rear passengers and the roll bar!:thankyou:

[jcal87]

Thank you guys! I am taking delivery tonight. I will add some more pics in the coming days.

[vdrivinmike]

Congrats!! Looks fantastic.

It seems the camera also loves your car. Go show it off and enjoy it!
