Winter Project
 

Here are a few pictures of a car I started to build ten years ago . I got this far five years ago and set it aside when I bought the Formula. My buddy finally convinced me to finish it. Should have it fired by next week and ready for the road in the spring. It is a back half car with a complete 4 link suspension, 427 cu in and nitros.

Should run 11's straight motor and low 10's on the spray.

Re: Winter Project
 

There You Go,allright I Can See.nice Car Brother!

Re: Winter Project
 

Sorry guys I had to resize the pictures several times before I got it right. I built it originally to run in the old pro-street class, but it is way out of date now. It is a turbo 400 car so I will run it on the street. I built a 12 point cage for it and put in a 1967 camaro bench sit so I could bring both of my kids ( lost the back seat with the cage and 4 link).

I will have to split my time between the car and the boat.

Re: Winter Project
 

My (former) bro-in-law bought a new 69 Z28 with a DZ/302 engine. He blew it up within a month, what a dumb-a$$! I don't remember Z28's having the 427 as an option. It does look good, tho. :D

Re: Winter Project
 

Yes a little aston-like up front but its roots are supposedly in the shelby daytona

Re: Winter Project
 

427 Yenko which was not realy a factory car was I believe the only 427 camaro you could sort of purchase

Re: Winter Project
 

Sorry for the confusion. It was never a Z28. I would never cut up a Z car. This car started life as a $ 300 307 Camaro. I cut the floor from the fire wall to the tail lights and built a complete rear chassis, new floor and rocker panels. The car is all steel except for the rear deck lid which is glass. I had to stretch the rear quarters 6 inches to fit the rear tires which are 16 X 33 's . I built the tubs big enough to fit 17 X 34 funny car slicks. the car should be fun when I finish it. The rear end is a ford 9 inch braced pro stock style complete with strange axles and a strange spool.
