Here's a new pic of my '68 camaro with the many upgrades I have done to it.
What do you guys think?

Wheels look good. Is the red on the wheel or the tire?

Very nice car!

The red line is actually on the wheel. I had about 1 1/2" of the lip painted black and had a red line added on top of it to give the impression of a red-line tire. I really like the look of the red lines but you can't find them in the tire sizes that I'm running so I came up with this!!

Looks good! What size are the rear tires?

Nice looking Camaro.

Looks great. What's changed since I last saw the car (prob 4+ years ago)?

Well Brian, I've changed/added many things since then. The bumble bee strip was changed from white to black, add hood pins and a 2" cowl hood, changed up the wheels & tires (Boze wheels & BFGoodrich g-Force sport comp-2 tires), added a carbon fiber front spoiler, added new gauges to the console, did a lot of changes in the engine compartment (fabricated valve covers, new Holley carb and plumbing, new "hose candy" hoses throughout, put in a thumper cam from Comp Cams plus more that I probably forgot), added a new stainless steel exhaust from Pypes with violator mufflers (really loud now!) and many more small things.
You think that's enough changes for 4 years? Lol
How's you car doing? I saw that you did a lot of work on it too!

I still have the black Rushforths Nick. The new ones on the car now are from Boze. I had them paint on a small black edge with a red line on top and I think it goes well with the car.

That should do it a nice job with the changes :). Take more pics!

Mine is doing ok. Long story but pulled the motor a number of months ago to fix an oil consumption issue. Had it back in, burned oil again so this weekend it was ripped out again to give it another shot. I'm changing things around so hopefully it will be back together soon.
