Are you interested in listing this restoration?
It is a full rotisserie restoration from this to finished. Unlike some, I would show the complete build here. I do need any information on first Gen Camaro's shipped to Europe for Racing. My car is a 1967 L30M20 car that I purchased from a Race team in Mainz Germany to drag race at Hanau Race Track. Any Pictures or Stories from this history is welcome.

It is like Photography had not been invented in Europe in the 60s 70s or 80s. Rally Racing has not made it to the internet.

Look at the Exhaust on this model

You can see where the Exhaust was bolted to the bottom, and even with the new Rockers installed, you can see the arches cut for the Exhaust to exit.

No adjustment needed if you can just cut it out!

The dpprs are from NPD, they fit really good, but the Legion Fenders from the Paddock are really bad. The inner is welded too far back, and the lower back part of the fender is to far back to be able to adjust it. We had to drill out the welds so the two parts could be taken apart. We then mounted the inner structure, and slid the outer fender back till we had proper alignment. This was accomplished while cutting gaps in the lower part of the fender to draw it forward. Once we had a good alignment it was all welded back together.

Notice the old school build, but with enough updated parts that it should improve cornering. The Offset GlobalWest upper A Frame posts and the Hotchkis springs and shocks should lower the front 1 to 2 inches.
