My idea as it also was with my 56 ElCamino is to give it a stock factory look. I have been checking out other Camaros at our local Cruise Nights looking at some of the available add-ons and so far added the quarter panel trim and a chrome grille. Not sure about larger stripes but probably will ad some pin striping.
RMay your yard sure looks junky with those cars in the grass. Maybe you can store a few of them at my house while you build something else. I'll drive them randomly to keep everything limbered up. I like the one in the middle the best so I'll make sure it gets seen at the local cruise ins. The Nomaro looks perfect just like when you drove it off the GM showroom floor.
Most were bought or ordered by many drag race outfits. They weighed a lot less and you could get just about anything you wanted in it
Sticking with mostly a factory built look on the Nomaro. I did add some custom stripes awhile ago on the front and rear. These are wrap graphics so if I ever decide on something else they can be easily removed.
Mine is actually a “windowed” sedan delivery it is a Delray model and one of approx. 600 ordered by the govt. that year.
@JackWagon beautiful Delray! That is a piece of sculptural art! @RMay I love the Nomaro! I am currently daily driving a 2012 45th Anniversary model. When I pack for a vacation trip in it, with the rear seat folded down it is amazing how much can be loaded in there. I've always called it the Camaro Station Wagon.
Thanks, it’s coming along… I’ve had it stored for about 30 yrs. In the last year we’ve been thru the brakes, tires, odds and ends plus a complete rebuild of the original engine, clutch and transmission. It has a strange factory build history. It was a govt motor pool car around the Salt Lake area that I’m still researching. Any info from that point is greatly appreciated .

I have been able to carry small furniture, car parts and even lumber.

View attachment 73243 [/QUOTE] I started looking at your project. Very nice. Looks like the work was done well and looks cool too. Yours has a little more power than mine and probably half the weight. You probably get a lot of attention and questions. It’s kinda fun having a car that’s a little outside of normal…
Its probably also really nice to be able to see out of the rear side window when backing out of a parking spot. The visibility from inside a Camaro is terrible.
