Camaro History: Fourth Owner (Me!)

In front of my home - a couple of weeks  after purchase. 

Fourth Owner (a.k.a. ME!)

I bought the car in September of 2000 and drove from Las Vegas back to Kansas City. The purchase process is detailed in the Camaro History: Introduction section

I plan to complete the mini-restoration on this car with some 'fun factor' built in. I'm not totally satisfied with the paint, but it will have to stay - too costly for too little improvement. The paint quality could win local shows (hopefully), but not at the national level.  All the better anyway - I plan to drive & enjoy this car anyway - less worries.  As of 06/10/2002, the car has 50,524 miles.

No permanent changes will be made that can't be easily undone. All modifications are "bolt-on" and will not compromise the originality of the car itself. Its a challenge and sometimes requires some self-restraint, but this car has lasted too many years to be heavily modified now. Besides, that's my excuse to buy another '68 that I can heavily modify!
