He built this car in his own shop for almost 4 years. It has done 3 Power Tours, all the way.In 1998 it drove from NC to Ca. and back with out one problem. It has won many Best Engineerd/ Best Appearing awards. The car has sat for years, but I drove it about 50 miles last April and it did great. Drives like a go cart. This car was featured in Hot Rod magazine March 1998 issue. The only difference between then and now is the addition of the heads and a cam change. I have included some of the Hot Rod pics, but the other pics were taken on 9-2-11.My step father had started to sand a few spots on the car as you can see on the hood, and a spot on the right 1/4 right before he became ill. The car starts right up and idles fine, like it is ready to go. If you have questions, just ask and I will try to answer the best I can. Thanks, Tim.On Sep-04-11 at 10:56:35 PDT, seller added the following information: I had forgotten to mention that the car comes with a stock spare engine, and trans/transaxle assy. as well as some other spare parts left over from the build. As far as I know, this is the only Camaro like this in the world. If interested in doing a Google search for the Hot Rod magazine article, you can find it under Warren Prout Camaero. Yes, that's the way it's spelled. Here is the chance to own one of one. Thanks.
