    Cool old Camo. Yup I priced out a new one in 1976 similarly equipped but got married instead lol. Still got the wife so I think i made the right choice.

    $3200 isn't bad considering about $400 of it was on paint products and supplies. It's a nice solid car now that you can drop another engine into after the 307 lives out it's life. That would go for around $5K here in PA.

    Should have tried krylon satin black, i did firewall, wheel tubs and underside of Dennis’s Firebird. Holding up very well.
    Camaro looks good.
    My son bought an 80 trans am that was solid. 10 was a fair price. 5 grand easy, all day long.

    One of my favorite videos produced by Penny's International LTD was the day you dragged the Camaro home! It had it all, lightning, thunder, hail and a bunch of wet Canadians! 😆 Hard to top that adventure! Go Penny's and bring on the next adventure!

    Good stuff. Years ago I had an ‘81 Chevy Impala. Thought it had a 305. Bought a water pump & WRONG. Researched VIN up & engine was a 267 V8. 4.4L. Although it had NO power that thing ran forever & a day. Gave to my Dad after a few years of me owning it & he drove the wheels off. Hard to beat an old Chevy!

    Sell that single plane intake manifold and replace it with a dual plane. You are throwing away a lot of torque and those big manifolds only kick in at 6500 rpm which that 307 will never come within 2k of that
