Default Day 3? 1973 Camaro

Thought it would be worth posting my old 1973 Camaro.
It’s a little more than a day-2 theme but figured some would appreciate it.
I rescued this car 1 year ago, recently finished and sold it.
She was an old show car from the 80s built by a guy in Alberta.
The car attended many of the Canadian World Of Wheels shows and was a well known street car from the Alberta / Sask area.
Long story short, the original owner moved out here to BC then had to sell the car in the early 90s.
A good friend of his purchased the car, only drove it a few times then parked it in his driveway for more than 30 years!
I came along and knew I had to rescue what was still left of this old warrior.
Left almost everything untouched and just how it was built.
A few minor replacement items to get it running and after a lot of searching I was able to locate exact spec Cragar SST replacement rims. Heck, I even reused the Protrac tires!
If only she was stored indoors, I’m sure the body would have looked like the day it was built, but it still polished up decent.
I was lucky to come across some old picture of the car as well.
Nothing like a solid lifter SBC, tunnel ram, duel quads, 4500 stall manual valve body, 4.10 gear with N50 Pro Tracs!
