About this Current Vehicle:

I saw this Camaro in the back lot at a Volvo Dealer and thought it would be the perfect project for an LS motor swap. It was parked sideways and had dust all over it like it had been sitting a long time. I found out the owner was a service tech and he probably would not want to sell it... but much to my surprise he gave me a call. I asked about it and he said he had just rebuilt the motor before moving from Cali. with a full LT4 build. I imagined his price would be over what I had but we struck a deal from 2800.

I went and looked and she had no interior, some rims that did not mesh with me and needed some cleaning etc. But since day one I have def been happy to be back in a Camaro. This makes #3!

All My Camaro's have been named Umi and so is this one. Its nice to have her back in the family. Umi is a character from MKR, that is Brat, Elegant and very Loyal to her friends. I think she fits my personal style for a Camaro quite well.
