1979 Chevy Camaro Berlinetta. This was my very first car which was purchased with only $400 and I could not even start it.  Equipped with a 5.0L (L63) engine producing  a whooping 130HP@3200RPM and 245Ft-LBS@2000RPM (Before Mods) and a TH350 tranny, this car was perfect for my projects.  It started Green but I didn't keep this color for long.

Mods:  Holley 650 carburetor, MSD Ignition wires and MSD HEI distributor, Hooker headers with true dual exhaust dumping in front of rear tires, B&M transmission kit for the TH350, Bosh Platinum plugs, K&N air filter, many under hood chromed parts and more.

 

This Camaro was rusted to hell and had several problems when purchased back 1986.  It took me 1 1/2 year to get it fixed properly.

Here are some Pics of the Camaro.  Click on them to enlarge.

The only decent pics I have of it just before it was sold in 1992.
