Hey guys, I haven't been on allot for a while. But now I got myself a new labtop so now I'm excited to get back into TGO. Anyway, I wanted to show you guys my Camaro as it sits now. I haven't posted about my car in here since I bought it in 08! I haven't done as much as I would have liked but I still have it and still plan on rebuilding the entire car sooner or later.

The Camaro is an 84 Sport Coupe, with a 305 LG4, and a 700r4 tranny (auto).
I swapped the rear end out for a rear end from an 88 iroc, with disc brakes! It bothered me having drums on that thing lol. i also put the ground effects from that same iroc on my car. Being a sport coupe the car didn't come with ground effects. I put an aftermarket alarm system on it, that can be too sensitive sometimes. I upgraded the headlights to 10K HIDs.

I wanted to talk a little about the body too. You may have seen the front camaro badge is gone. That is because the donor car was like that when I got it. So i stuck with it, I kinda think it gives it a clean/custom look. what do you think? I also took the iroc badges on it and plan on making some custom inserts. I dont like the idea of putting iroc badges on a camaro that isn't one.


These are some pics before i put the gfx on.

I just took these pics because I was eager to post this. So I didn't clean it before hand.

Car looks good
can't go bad with the SC look but the gfx also gave your car a different loo
its funny my car looled the same when my mom gave it to me lol

The sport coupe look is ok, personally I like the gound effects soo much more.
Your car was white and black too?

The car looks good.

Did you have it in storage?

I noticed in one pic it looked like no plate on it and another pic looked like a temporary plate.

Any additional future plans for it?

Louis_84

Thanks, no it was "in" storage, I just kept it in my garage for the Wisconsin winters. The pics without gfx are just old and are taken at different times. The temporary plates I have now because I'm "upgrading" to collector plates. Lol. I'm just waiting for them to come in the mail.

And YES i definitely have future plans. Everything must go! I want to swap a 350, with a T5 conversion, posi rear end. And the entire suspension, control arms, lowering kit. And a bad *** sounds system! Basically.

Louis_84

Btw, my plates read "FBODY". Lol, just thought I'd share that.

I also have my collector plates for my 83 S.C. now.

Louis_84

I just got them, but I love that I don't need to renew them every year. So it pays for itself really.

Edwardgp

That is a plus.

Oh yeah. You would look at the pics of the custom emblems I had made
Because I didn't want to put Iroc, Z28, or RS emblems on it because it's no
Any of them. Pics in my photobucket in sig

Louis_84

I checked out your ride on your photobucket, its a nice ride, coolwheels. I like your emblems. Where did you buy them? I was thinking of making my own, maybe a chevy symbol.

I found a guy on eBay that was selling a set of chrome "Camaro" emblems for a third gen
I contacted him and asked where he got them because I hadn't seen any like that and
He said that he makes them so I had him make me a set. Think i paid around $120 for them shipped

Louis_84

When did you buy them coolwheels? I just looked and there is a guy selling some custom stainless steel emblems for $1-2, and $6 for shipping if you buy it now. I'm thinking about hopping on that right now!

Louis_84

These are what I just found, I actually bought a set as well, $7 shipped. He's got a lot of different color combinations too. But he says that they are not perfect and may have yellowing, or small blisters in the powder coating. And all sales are final, no exchanges or returns. He also makes no metion of them being for third gens either, but the measurements are 1.25in by 7in, which is pretty dead on to the iroc emblem I measured.
