helms's "The beater" - 1987 Chevrolet Camaro

Description:

I had a small block I was building and I needed something to to put it in. I stumbled accross this POS in a co-workers backyard bush. Carb 305 w/700r4 and 30% rust....perfect. Hauled it home one rainy day and got to work. tossed the 305 for the 355, the 700r4 for a T5 setup and added some guages to keep tabs. I left the body alone to remind the car where it came from
