my Camaro I have had it for over 6 years now and I have enjoyed every day of it. When I got it {I found it in a barn} it had only 26000 miles on the clock, this is how the story goes. The guy that had got it from new had drivin around in it for a year or two then with the fuel prices going up and up he made up his mind to go drag racing so he pulled the car of the road and started building the car to go fast, anyway in the 80s he gave up and gave it to a friend to get it done and after his friend had finish the job it sat in his workshop for about 10 years and that is were my mate found it and bought and got it back to New Zealand were he raced it for two years when he got under the 10s he gave up and parked it in his barn and left it there I knew he had

for a number of years but he would not sell it but about 6 years ago he gave in and I got it, it did not have the big block in it that had done the quick times so we built a good small block and put that in and that where we were up to Xmass time and I got bored so I made it in to a CHAPARRAL CAMARO rep. I guess I have aways like the TRANS-AM racing and this way I can walk into my shed and there it is my very own trans-am car.
.oh by the way she has only got 27500 mile on the clock now
