Really cool Camaro, assume just the way it is, would be a blast to drive. Would get my vote over a restored one, anyone can bolt on shiny new parts.

7000rpm wasn't nice to the Quanta belt. Any replacement recommendations that can handle the rpm?

With the hardware gone, it's amazing the belt was still on, after it's world turned upside down...

I'd get another of the same belt, since it lived and performed it's job that well.
