He said there would be one Camaro, but there is two.

So +1 if you got the reference in the title to the movie the Freshman, "he said there would be one boy, but there is two."

I picked up a 1980 Camaro for a project car recently. I've always loved pony cars, I picked up my 96 Camaro when I was 19, I've been modifying it and dailying it for the last 2 years. It's my daily, winter beater, drift missile, drag race car, but I'm sick of beating/breaking the car I drive every day.

I bought and sold an s13 last year, but it needed more work than I cared to do, so after making a few bucks on it when I sold it, I have been waiting for the right car. This was it.











It was recently repainted Medium Atlantic Blue, basically rust free minus a 3 inch hole in the passenger side floor. It needs the trim, mirrors, and lights re-installed, which I have. It desperately needs a tune up, and the brakes gone over, but she runs and drives currently.

The only things I'm missing are weather stripping for the doors and windows, and the door panels. Besides this, it needs the interior cleaned up.

It's originally a 305 v8 car, which I think it still is. It has 115k, but it might not be original, it has a 4bbl carb swap, and looks suspiciously like a 350, but I'm far from an expert.

It does have a th350, and VIN check says it was a posi car. It does have nice t-tops and the z28 rear wing.


My plans are to get it back to complete, safe, roadworthy condition. Then eventually long tubes, true 3 inch duals, and 4 inch drop front, 3 inch rear. Not sure what wheels, but the god-awful ones on it now will go.
