New guy from Western MA

Hey everyone,

My name is Brandon, and im from Western MA. I just picked up a project car (rolling chassis). The car is a 1995 Camaro Z28. It was recently painted a nice white with a little metal flake in the sun. Has the "hockey stick" stripes painted on the car as well. Someone took there time doing the body work and shaved the door locks as well. The rear tails have been tinted, and the car has a 4" cowl hood. Overall the exterior is really nice.

The car has also been mini-tubbed (appears to be the wolfe racing kit installed), and it has a 6pt roll bar (also appears to be the wolfe design). Either way the 6pt will most likely be ripped out in favor of at least an 8pt by someone who had slightly more skill then the previous fabricator lol.

The car is a t-top car and has a black suede headliner. The rest of the interior is going to need to be finished, and the whole car will have to get rewired....but overall its a really nice project.

I traded the current owner a running lt1 and 300.00 for the car. I couldnt go wrong!






...I look forward to spending some time on the board and sharing my progress as I move along.

Here are some pics of my current street car...







My caprice weighs 4040 with me in it and traps 114mph in the 1/4 on 215 walmart white-walls

Welcome to the board. Make sure to get an updated copy of the NED rulebook... It differs slightly from the IHRA one. Hope to see you on the track when the weather warms up.
