Project 1 (1986 Camaro 305, 700R4)
Goal high
10 second drag car. Donor car was in fair to good overall condition. Engine
and transmission were spent but were of little to no valve to me anyway. Car
was also a flood survivor with related damage. I'm buying building preparing
with a mindset of budget foremost in mind but not at the expense of good
performance parts with the durability a considered. What good is a car that
will make a half dozen passes and then a catastrophe failure puts you back
on the trailer.

I found the donor car for my project about 100 miles of my house in Graham,
WA. The kid had it listed on eBay for $1500.00 but he got burned by a
typical eBay buyer who committed to buy and carped out on the payment.
Rather than paying the relisting cost I offered him $700.00 for it and
rather reluctantly eventually
he took it. So we were off to Graham to make the PU. Below are some pictures
of the Riviera on the first day.
