First off a disclaimer... If you are bored at work and just want to browse some pics of a 67 coming apart, then coming back together, then by all means click away. To be frank, I got sick and tired of sending pics to the in-laws and my dad, and my friends, and co workers, and the photobucket thing was just a pain. So, I made a website that will document the car build. www.cilurso.com (http://www.cilurso.com). Click on the car stuff, unless you are interested in my wife's journey to becoming a large pregnant woman. The site is very immature, but there are a few(70) Camaro pics in various states of dis repair. As I get smarter, it will get better and hopefully make sense and showcase some of the other projects.

The 67 is a plain jane 6cyl car with a nasty big block in it. Many of you might not be fond of the direction of the build, but I wanted something a little more fun to drive, so I've updated all the suspension and brakes. Car will have no badges or trim, an RS nose, shaved front bumper and a pretty aggressive stance on some 17" V40s. I knew I wasn't going stock, so the 6cyl car was perfect, no need to chop up a valuable car. This has been a fun project so far. My last was an 800rwhp 05 Vette, I can honestly say I'm glad I don't have to bust out the laptop to get this one to run. Luckily, the ole big block cleaned up nice, and an internal inspection showed a pretty new build so that will stay there till I break it. I have no idea wht the thing is, it's a 454 block, with a wicked cam. I couldn't convince myself to taking the heads off so I really don't have a clue. Block has no numbers on it, heads are from a 66 360/396 closed chamber. I've built all manner of junk and this one is about 500 horse. 4sp will stay as well until the motor swap, then I will build a 5sp for it. I have fixed the horrible shift box they built into the floor. Is it that hard to find a Camaro shifter? After a while I decided I wanted a very slick paint job, something which I can do, but it is very painful. So, I dropped it off at a good dude in Arvada CO to smooth it out and do the body work. Its coming along and I might have the whole thing done in GASP!!!! under a year.

I'm only listing these to help keep the bored folks at work awake. Lord knows you've done me that favor a bunch.

Again, I appologize for the crappy site, but I'm working at it :)

Looks good and congrats on the baby on the way!

All right i there goes 10 minutes that helped relieve my work time. Likes the dogs, look like they will take a bite out of crime. That car is sweet, thats great that you have the time to work on it that much. I gotta say i hate when my camaro is not running but i know there are times where you just have to sit pretty for weeks or even months. Right on for sharing dude.

Summer, the lighter one is a Czech and Diesel the dark one is German. He actually came in a plane from Germany :) I found Summer in a pound. Between them and the Glock we're good at my house.

I do hate waiting and the original plan was to drive the car until I got my dad's 50 done. I tend to be a bit anal and I just could not live with the wavy body. I really needed to see what was under it. And, off to the races. My wife just shook her head at me. Car was home 2 days then stripped bare.

There were places that could be patched but I like to put em together like they came. I hate seeing weld on the inside of a fender.

Thanks for sharing RJ.
I saved a few pics for later reference. You are a little ahead of me, but we are on the same road. I wish I had access to a rotisserie like the one your car is on! :yes:

Well looks like it's going great. I had mines going to the shop almost all the time when i got my camaro, my wife also shook her head because i kept spending loads of cash. I finally just got a whole new engine. Now next project is body work, not sure if i will try that one myself either because there are some heavy rust spots and i don't know much about fixing or painting. I bet those dogs are smart. I had a dog that was half sheaperd and she was so intelligent. Now i have a Beagle, i gotta say i went from Einstein to a bird brain.
