My Camaro
 

I just wanted to quick post my 67 Camaro. I had an SS car back when I was in my late teens. Now 15 years later I have my 67 back after marriage, a house and kids and all the stuff that goes along with it.

Thanks it has been a long time coming. Not an SS but a cool piece. That is an 05 Chevy blue. In the next day or so I will try to get some pictures of the way I got the car up until it looks now.

Hey Dog427, Here is what it looked like the day I brought it home.

Re: My Camaro
 

Hey is an interior picture when it came home.

Re: My Camaro
 

Here's the 327 that provides plenty of smiles.

Re: My Camaro
 

The Passenger side of the day it came home.

Re: My Camaro
 

So like any guy who has been waiting 15 years I took it over to Orin at A2D (Attention 2 Detail) and started in on getting a basically Straight solid car to get shined up.

Re: My Camaro
 

Is that a Delorean? Oh wait. Its my Camaro.

Re: My Camaro

Re: My Camaro
 

OK so we found some goofy patch work that had been done to the drivers side door. A small plate of metal had been welded to the out side, over top of a small hole. I don't know why anyone would do that.

Re: My Camaro
 

[b] Nice job!! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Re: My Camaro
 

Thanks. So our patch turned out a little better. A thin skim coat and a little sanding and it looked great.

Re: My Camaro
 

So here is the part that really got me down. The passenger side rocker was really wasted. It was rusted, repaired, bonded, repaired and rusted again. So we cut it out. I was really down about the car when we found out how ugly it was. As you can see it is just hanging there.

Re: My Camaro
 

Here we are after the new rocker started to go in. I was feeling much better.

Re: My Camaro
 

Oh I guess I should note that (after I read my first post) that this is not an SS, just a base coupe, I am sure most of you have figured that out, but it is a 67 Camaro just like back in the day. I am almost happier this way, because I can drive it regularly and not feel like I am tearing up something rare. Even though it is not a BB or has some rare options, it is a blast to drive.

Re: My Camaro
 

OK, so after all the metal work was done and any large dents pulled and body panels aligned an epoxy primer a ton of fine detail body work was in order. This meant lots of sanding all by hand. All in all not too bad of a body for a 41 yr old.

Re: My Camaro
 

As you can see in this picture at some point in time it had had a good whack. I wanted to keep as much original and the door is sound and not too far gone. Just strange what thing occur over time.

Re: My Camaro
 

So more body work to straighten this mystery. Again some skim coat and sanding.

Cool 427TJ. I looked all over for some surviving pictures of my first Camaro but this is the only one I can find. This is the day I found it and brought it home. It was a BB/4spd/12bolt posi car. It was fast and fun.
