68 Camaro 4Sale! - Lateral-g Forums

1Cool68 · #1 09-18-2006, 02:17 AM

Ive had my Summer fun with the car and now looking to sell it. Its a 68 with the RS grille. Under the hood is a full roller 454 stroked to a 496 and backed to a T-56 and a spooled 12 bolt with 4.56's in the rear. The car is AWESOME from top to bottom. SSBC brakes and a Hydraboost, matching crossed drilled rotors showing through the TT2's, so the car can stop as good as it gets. Leather Corbeau seats up front. Everything is new on this frame off resto-mod. I can e-mail pics and a complete parts list. Oh, and did I say the car is fast? Lets just say only the serious should drive or inquire.

Asking price is $41k. Over $30k of receipts!

Call me with any ??'s

I'll be getting some pictures up this weekend. Wife is on a business trip and she's got the camera. I will also be putting it on E-bay within the month. I thought I would let everyone here get the first chance.

We love pics! You really run a spool?

Pics are coming soon...

Yeah, Ive never driven a spooled car before and I dont know what the census here is on them but I kind of like it. I havent noticed any strange or excessive tire wear and the car launches very straight and never gets squirrley unless you want it to. I got into a large intersection and "drifted" the car into 450 degrees of pure FUN! With 600hp and 600++tq its effortless. It was Tokyo Drifting right here in the NorthWest!

Only disadvantage to someone buying your car is they now have the expense of putting in a posi unit of some sort, as that spool will tear things up on the street.

See thats just it... What do you mean tear things up on the street? So far I dont see any problems with it being spooled. In fact I was thinking about putting one in my other small block 68. Any info in regards I would appreciate.

Pics will be on this weekend.
$41k OBO!

The problem with them is a spool locks the two rear axles together. Fine for a drag car, but on anything that turns it forces the inside tire to spin as the outside one turns faster. On a road course this would be a disaster unless you are doing drifting.

In the real world this is far from ideal and usually breaks an axle at some point as all the stress is on it.

Must be fun making a tight turn at slow speeds, right? Inside tire hopping and skidding on the road. I've ridden in a couple cars with spools on the street, turn into a parking lot and the car is hopping and banging like the rear end is going to fall out of it.

Are you sure you have a spool? Because I can't imagine you enjoying it in a street car.

Jody's right. I have a spool in my drag car which is ideal for the application but I would never run one on the street. You must go through alot of tires.
