Picked Up Some New Rims...
I picked up a really nice pair of rims for the front of the Camaro project. They are polished 15x3.5 Centerline Autodrag rims for the front. Slowly but surely I'm gathering parts for the Camaro. I plan on running 15x14 Weld Pro Star rims on the back. I'm currently in the process of pulling the motor out of the 'Vette. I'm hoping to pull the motor out within the week.
I have a TH400 tranny laying around that needs rebuilt. I'm going to get a transbrake manual valve body for it. I found a guy locally that builds transmissions for all the drag race guys and he can rebuild it pretty reasonably.
I just figured I'd post an update...oh by the way my 21 birthday is on Thursday (the 25th). :leaving: .

Bence, Autodrags absolutely ROCK on our era cars. They were hot tickets back then and they still look great.
In fact, they're almost as kickazz as Convo Pros... :jester

Mike:
I'm hoping to have the Camaro ready for summer. I'm ready to pull the motor out of the 'Vette right now. I'm just going to be saving my pennies this winter. I see a Hurst Quarter Stick shifter in my future. :)
