Hey Team Camaro, New guy here, excited to be part of the team and share my story. Like a lot of people during this pandemic I've been stuck at home, I'm determined to use this time productively. Project Lockdown is my 1969 Camaro project started years ago as a sophomore in college, for the...

Howdy from Texas! Ahh the story behind this car, my dad purchased it in '99 about an hour out of San Antonio. It was driven until one day they parked it at my grandmother's house, I still remember staring in awe at it when I was 5 years old and it was just sitting outside. Ten years pass by and...

I have the opportunity to purchase a pro-street Camaro minus engine and transmission. I wanted to get a better idea of what I would be getting myself into if I wanted to take a pro-street build and convert it back to a road-safe Camaro (whether that is close to stock or pro-touring). From what...

I am considering having a shop build a 700-hp 427-ci 2x4-bbl engine for a 1969 Camaro Pro Street in the coming years. It would consist of a brand new block and parts. Is there any way to know what I may expect to pay for such a build (including a new block and parts, labour, etc.)? I'm sure such...
