JUNK-MAN Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 I pulled this out and finished it up over the holiday, my first attempt at a large amount of modification. I used a late 70s ford frame, axels, driveshaft and transfer case, shortened it, and shortened the driveshaft. I cut out the stock gas tank, filled in the hole and made a support and bumper in the back around the ford gas tank. I put in the stock small block Chevy and used tri-five Chevy exhaust manifolds flipped up-side-down with homemade pipes, also added a homemade roll bar along with seat belts and a steering wheel from the parts box. wheels and tires as well as the air cleaner and plates are from the parts box too. Thanks for looking an all comments/suggestions welcome.
DRIPTROIT 71 Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 Very cool build! Back in the 80's I saw one similar to this (it was 74 body style) win the mud bogging competition at the Greensboro Colosseum. I've been planning something similar on a Jeep frame. I hope to get to it one day.Great work!!
carman1 Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 must have been the thing to do back in the 80s, I seen a 67 GTO conv on a 4wd chassis at Carlisle, that car still haunts my dreams ! Nice job on the Camaro !
espo Posted January 11, 2017 Posted January 11, 2017 Very creative, very nice finish. Years ago I lived near Pismo Beach in California. There were several 1:1 cars in the dunes built just like this.
