Thanks everybody it sure is a pleasure to have the car on here.I do plan on taking it to SCR but it won't be till next year I'd like to go to both Gibb memorial and SCR.
Rick.. I want to say it was around 1200.
Fred.. I wish I took more pics before I parked it most of what I have is while it was apart There is some on here with it on the trailer coming home from NY on past Threads I think.
Mark.. I'm sure planning on it. Congrats on your Motion Camaro in Chevy Rumble that's a very cool car http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/burnout.gif
Joe..Yes it was there is a thread on here with the original ad that someone posted a while back.

Bob.. it's mine to when I first got it I didn't know it was originally dusk blue heck I didn't even know the paint codes but when I found out I was pretty happy. my brother had one that was dusk blue ss 396 375hp it was the reason why I wanted this one they were pretty and fast http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/burnout.gif

Frank Thanks for posting the link.Joe I have to say the same for your car to great car http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/burnout.gif
I need to add something else back in 76 when we went to get this car everybody around here thought we were nuts paying 6800 for a camaro in 76 let alone driving clear to NY to get it and now it turns out it was the smartest dumb thing i ever did http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

I kinda figured that, especially being 18 and your first car, but that's what makes this story so "SWEET"---"Just Do It"--------------- http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif
