Re: Grandfather's 68 SS Camaro.
Whats the casting number on the block and the casting date? Can you get a pic of the fuel line down near the engine mount?

Good Luck, Grandpa kept the car looking nice!

Re: Grandfather's 68 SS Camaro.
To be truthful, the resto was included when he bought it. Though he does know how to work on cars. Used to rebuild cars from the junk yard and sell them. I think it's off because when the car was restored, it had a points distributor, but dad and I put an MSD HEI distributor in it. Maybe there was something we forgot to do.

Re: Grandfather's 68 SS Camaro.
It won't matter for a few years, but will 15x7s work with Polyglas L60s? I want to go bias-ply when the radials go bad. I know bias tires aren't as good handling, but I also know they aren't as evil as some make them out to be.

Re: Grandfather's 68 SS Camaro.
Here's some new pictures of it. Now they're HD because I figured out my camera (you'd think a 15 year old would know how to mess with the settings immediately. Nope- took 5 years of having the camera to realize how to set it to 1080p)
