That's awesome, so was mine! 1980 base Camaro with the 3.8L 229cid V6 and a Saginaw 3spd behind it. Didn't stay that way for long either though.

Car is looking good, Don. I've always had a special place for second gens since my first one in high school.

Nick thats how the tips were on those I think thats why they used quad tips again on the 4th gen TA's trying to bring that style back. Camaros had single pointed down like that. I think its hard to do exhaust tips on these cars any other way than that or dumping them. I had two under the bumper and it looked weird...

Don that car is mint nice score. I'm assuming no rot lol.

The car isn't mint in any way. It's decent.

It's been painted once with a single stage. From what I've seen it need minimul floor work, slight 1/4 work from little bubbles and the trunk hatch has very minor rot at the corner. Pretty much what I'd expect for the price of the car. Looked at others for $4k more that were in worse condition.

It's getting a tune up,oil change,smog delete,egr delete and some clean up under the hood tomorrow. Gonna drive as is for the summer while I think out a plan.

Nice car, I agree it's a good car to build, most people seem to keep them pretty close to stock.

For me, close enough to stock would be without a monster size hood, stock dash, and stock looking wheels. But if you added "on the low side, not 1000 hp, but Slowhawk kickass hp" under the hood.....that would be so nice.

I'm thinking 500rwhp would be nice and keep the car stock looking.

Another show Lady- Why does your car say Corvette on the engine? We have a Corvette and your car doesn't look like one. LMFAO
