old school Day2 look

[musclcar]

do alot of you guys here have this type of look on your cars and how exact is your build-up .i've got this look on my 72 camaro ss and it really represents that day2 old school theme .i get alot of weird looks and responses when i say that term "old school day2" like they do not understand it at all

Hey Chuck, You must be using that term around guys that are 25-30 years old.

Im doing a day 2 69 Camaro SS at my shop now as a frame off, BB, headers, 2x4bb, bigens and littlens cragers with cheeter slicks, slappers, 488 rear with M22, colume mounted tach and under dash gauges. Should be tons of fun and horse power and a early 70`s look on a very nicely restored car.

over at nastyz28 they think my car is stupid looking with the N50-15 tires sticking out of the rear wheel wells .almost everyone over there has not a clue on Day2 build ups . there's a thread going over at nastyz28 about day2 old school cars and i'm the minority

How exact? I guess this type of question compares to the type of restos your use to.....Do the best you can,don't cut corners...and NEVER buy parts from Summit,Jegs..ect.The litte items stick out like a sore thumb....Cragers aren't Cragers..get it? My pet peeve....don't ceramic coat/powder coat anything.....EVER.Leave the Cal-Tracs and poly bushings on the shelf.....Traction Masters,Lakewoods...NMW's.. On a true "day two" I like to see most parts even pre-date the car by a few years....Never the other way around....I recently found the "right" lug nuts for my TT rims....Felt great when somone at a local cruise noticed and said to his friend..
"Wow! He even has the old school lugs on his mags...".... Now that's what I'm talking about...

all my parts on my camaro are from swapmeets or from evilbay and i've done alot of research into making sure it the correct parts .i'm running N50-15's and 165-15's with ansen sprint 15x10 and 15x4 slot dish mags .old style lakewood slapper bars are also on the car .the engine is a original LT1 350sbc with all the speed parts from the late 60's and early 70's
