I knew a guy who had a '69 Z-28 clone that was seriously one of the nicest street driven hot rods I've ever seen. I'm including Porsches, exotics, everything. Haven't seen him in years but ran into one of his buddies the other night and thought about asking him if he's seen Darren, (guy w Camaro).
It was black w a white stripe and had a well-tuned 427 w 4-speed and 12 bolt posi w good street gears. Racing seats and harness, aluminum roll bar, nice gauges, etc., etc...
LAPD would pull him over just to ask about the car and drool. It was seriously quick and set up for handling w modern brakes. That thing would just rip your head off in the passenger seat.
Just food for thought.
