Real cool photos. I could look at photos like these for hours.

You gotta love those old Cal Custom quick release, valve cover bolts with the detachable wing nut tops. You couldn't go more than a mile without losing one which would inevitably fly out under the car and hit the car behind you. I think this was the only photo we ever had with his car having a full set of the wing nut tops on it.

Now those are some vintage pics!! Reminds me of the cool older dudes who lived down the street when I was a little kid. Always wrenching on some Camaro or Chevelle.

I know Guy Ripa, haven't seen him in years but his yellow Camaro was at the CT Dragway Reunion show the past couple of years, (I was there, guess I just missed him). There are some videos on Youtube of the event and his car is next to a killer street-legal 10.5 Nova also from Guys' area. Years ago when Guy decided to get serious with the car and replace the 396 with a crate LS7 that had a camshaft upgrade; I worked at the shop that did the changeover and helped with it.

Since then the Camaro has been through numerous changes but as far as I know, was never cut-up.

Whatever happened to the Pacer? I remember a senior (when I was a sophomore) who had a super-rusty one in high school....I think it ultimately broke in half due to corrosion...even back then it was a pretty distinctive looking car...
