    Hello all.

    Greeting s from So-Cal. I'm finally restoring my very first car from high school, a 1968 RS Camaro. I'm not even close to being the original owner, but I've had the car since 1992. So far I've given the little Camaro a 454 BBC heart transplant, and a 6sp tremec to compliment the 4.10 12 bolt. The car is currently going through a frame off restoration $$$$$$$ , so it will be awhile till I get to drive her again. This Forum site has given me a lot of useful advice, and I look forward to all the future advice I will seek out as my restoration progresses.

    Thanks
    The moment somebody says to me, "This is very risky," is the moment it becomes attractive to me.

    A fat block with a 6-speed sounds like about as much fun as it's possible to have with your clothes on. Thanks for paying homage to Mr. Clay Smith with your screen logo.

    Welcome to the group, Torque. '68 'maro's are neat vehicles!

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
