Camaro fresh off the boat

[jaydee]

Went with my brother tonight to pick up his latest import, a very nice Camaro RS. I know not a Ford, he usually gets Mustangs, but this was too nice to pass up.

Originally a 327 but a pretty hot 350 now. It is as sweet as, just finished a complete resto in the US.

We picked it up from the wharehouse after Customs had inspected it, new battery, some fuel, checked the oil, fired up no probs.

Wouldnt go into gear (auto). Then the guy says"Oh yeah, when we took it out of the container it was stacked on an incline and all this red fluid had come out, is that transmission fluid?" Der, thanks for mentioning it on the phone.

Raced off to a garage, now, well after 6pm, got some tranny fluid and topped her up. Saw an absolutely gorgeous blonde woman in a tight pencil skirt and heels filling up, I nearly ran into a 4wd backing out.

Anyway, back to the Camaro, drover her home, brakes are really bad, just wont pull you up (drums, a brand new disc conversion ready in the boot) and steering is way too light, so a bit of work before licensing.

So a couple of pics, hope you like, will try for an engine bay shot later which is also detailed. The headlight covers have folded back in this shot, but they do work.
