Original passion, reborn! RamAirZ history lesson, lotsa pics

[vt_maverick]

I hear you, the AC didn't work in my Camaro and I couldn't afford to have it fixed (I was 17 and saving for college at the time). Lots of memories of hot summer nights in NC...

[RamAirZ]

true that. Mine worked in my first one but my temp gauge would shoot up when I used it so I just never did. When I got a little more car knowledge I decided to diagnose it myself and turns out it was something in the gauge circuit cuz it'd be sitting at 180-190 on a different gauge when mine said 250! I still rarely used it, ttops were off at all times unless it was raining

Would have loved to have had T tops, here's hoping that trend comes back someday. FWIW, I would love to see a restyled version of the 80's IROC Z28 T top Camaro succeed the current 60's redo model someday. I love the new look, but someday Detroit WILL have to stop repackaging 60's designs (and therefore move onto the 80's).

True that. I'm one of the few that REALLY love that body style. I actually would love to own an 84' like this:

Dallas you check out the current cover story on AutoWeek (October25, 2010)?
"Camaro Corral -Three trick ponies 1,800 HP by SLP" with a short history side article, including your body style.
I'll send it to ya if ya want.

[RamAirZ]

Ya send it over, that'd be sweet. Did they have the early Firehawk in there?

PM me your addy...

The short history is of SLPs performance timeline, and it includes one Firehawk, 2002....oh, and a red 1991 too.

I LOVE the new Camaros! It's like my childhood wish could come true one day. My high school heartthrob had the white with orange stripes.....oh man I loved that but I want a bright red SS.
One Canadian VXer (mrtew - check out his gallery pics) got one real early (kinda the orangey/red), and I think he said he had a part in its development too. How cool is that?

[RamAirZ]

PM sent. I really liked this Firehawk:
