OT: Colour advice for a classic..

[MCBTunes]

If your ok with straying from origginal colors....

rooster dink pink or if you like dark colors, forest green is nice

 

[Mobay45]

I'll say it again. This color looks great anytime and awesome in the sunlight.

 

[BOOST]

i like the yellow too, but i feel its played out on the classics , that and hugger orange colour

 

[Dr Stankface]

Pearl purple with white racing stripes.

My brother has always wanted a 67 SS Camaro.

I've always wanted a 67 fastback Mustang.

Although I do have a 49 Ford F-100 I plan on getting up and running.

That Nantucket Blue is stunning. A deep metallic hunter green would look really nice too.

can you guys guess what engine i'm putting in it

 

[Dr Stankface]

You should put in a 351 Windosr

Or just the stock SS motor. Those will haul too.

 

[BOOST]

hahaha windsor, psshh if i had a fastback it would be 390, 375 hp, the "bullit" steve mcqueen mobile yummy ride..

no but a 427 rat is going in

 

[Oldtoe]

Stick one of those RamJet 502 Goodwrench crate motors in it.

And I was going to suggest Hugger Orange. Oh well...

 

[skabassist13]

The 351 Windsor is a Ford motor. The Camaro is Chevy. Silly kid.

 

[BOOST]

yeah the 502 is a 600hp + crate engine a beauty but worth alot of dough, i'll be happy with 5-550 at the crank

 

[Oldtoe]

Yep, huge money for those. You can build one a lot cheaper.

Another vote for a deep, pearlescent purple here since H.O. is out of the question.

 

[BOOST]

i can't picture this purple any pics for ideas?

 

[Oldtoe]

Something like this. Flames optional.

 

[BOOST]

hmmm...i think i still like my gunmetal , the purple is nice, just not me...

 

[Oldtoe]

No arguments here. Just make sure you don't forget the curb feelers, furry dashboard and chrome backlight louvers! Pimp that Camaro! LOL


A guy I know has a 1200rwhp '67 Camaro. Turbo, low-compression, etc., etc. He keeps breaking transmisions and driveline parts. Go figure. I believe he mentioned dialing down the boost a bit... I just can't see dumping $30,000 into an engine, but that's just me. He's a (good) mechanic, though, and that's his thing. I suppose you could equate that to how much I've spent on basses and music equipment over the years. Yikes!

yah 30,000 is alot into an engine i mean restoring one of these u spend that alone in body and all the accessories and everything i tell you.. not a cheap hobby to do right.. lol..i orig wanted to go twin turbo, but changed my mind, i think at shows it would just look funny under the hood, MAYBE i should airbrush a lil stingray on there car

This I know. I'm a Ford guy. Chevy's need all the help they can get.

And who are you calling kid???

 

[Oldtoe]
