Default Stuart Adams' ALUMN8R

1969 RS Camaro

Named: ALUMN8R

Bought car from Charley Lillard as a very nice ZL 1 clone. I guess it would still be somewhat of a ZL 1 clone because of all the aluminum parts. Its now a ZL 1 on steroids! The car has been built with a pro-touring type theme and built to drive fast with the air conditioning on and the CD playing. Charley has a VERY nice 69 Camaro named the MULE, which was some of the inspiration behind this project. I am very happy with the setup and look forward to putting some fun miles on.

That's sweet how they did the air intake, and how it covers the gap up front...so, how's it run?
