New guy saying hi!

OK, so just new to the forum!
I've owned a ton of camaros in my time.
Off the top of my head, a 78,79, and 81 (man I miss my 81!)
And then 2 2010 camaros. Both bumblebees, yellow/black, 6 speeds. Had a 2LT, loved it, but wanted more power, so upgraded to a 2 SS.

But then life and my second hobby intervened, and I had a few SUVs and now, with daily driving into NYC and a family, I drive a nice little Audi.

But I did manage to finally get my hands on a car I've been after for a long time, a nice first gen. It's not perfect, but it's what I was after. It's a big block 68, and pretty sure it's an SS. But I don't have supporting paperwork, and it's not the original block, so I'm just going based on what I've seen.

For now I'm doing a bunch of little projects, and come winter, will either ship it off for a bunch of major work or upgrade it for something a step up.

I have the joy of living in NJ with no garage, so it's not going to live under a cover all winter

Few pictures of my car...

Here's the big link of stuff...

Like I said, it's not perfect, but it's great for me. Although I do need to get a real exhaust installed. Big block (with a healthy cam) combined with headers ending in turndowns means most of the neighborhood knows when I'm around
