History:

My parents bought this car brand new and brought me (a brand new bouncing baby boy) home from the hospital in it.  Back in 1972, my dad ordered an RS/Z28 from the local Chevy dealer.  He went to get insurance and found that they couldn't afford it.  He went back to the Chevy dealer and cancelled the Z28 and ordered just a plain RS 350 with sway bars, spoilers, positraction, etc.  He tried to order all the equipment that a Z28 had.  Basically my Camaro has everything but the solid-lifter 350 and badging.

My dad did all his own repairs and I remember frequently "helping" him (He ran out of expletives when "we" replaced the timing chain/gears).  Now, MY son (8 yrs. old) and I work on it together, occasionally with his Grandpa.

I'm going to try a vintage Trans-Am racing series feel only streetable and without the numbers. I plan on installing a complete LS1/Tremec T56 6-speed, tubular front A-arms with rack-and-pinion steering and Eibach springs, complete Wilwood disc brakes at all four corners, later-model bucket seats (with the matching rear seats), polyurethane bushings throughout, Minilite-style 16 inch wheels, and anything else that I can think of.
