Come on Man, everybody on here is pretty cool. You don't need to lie. We will still like you. But you're telling us that you have a COPO Camaro that you use as your daily driver. Dude, if you can prove this I will eat a turd!

I have a 1969 Camaro ZL1 Copo that I inherited from my grandpa with a ball bearing turbo and a 3 core intercooler to give it a boosted 835 horsepower and 856 ft lbs of torque.

If you are not BS ing us (have my doubts here), you have a car that's worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.....an extremely rare and amazing car.

If I owned it, I wouldn't be risking total damage to it at the track.

AWD????????? Come on, really????????????

I detail my car top to bottom every 2 weeks. My parents have agreed to let me buy another car and put this one in storage for 300 bucks a month...i have a car cover for it and its always been in the garage.

I'm calling BS.
You have a '69 ZL1 with the original engine stored with 25 miles on it. And driving it?????

I have to adjust my original estimated value of hundreds of thousands.....original #'s match? 25 miles on original engine?

Worth close to one million dollars now.....BS BS BS

Hold on.... you're 16 and have the money to own 2 cars, one being a ZL1 with a swapped engine plus a SC?

My grandfather and I rebuilt his old 442 W-30 together but I still paid for the parts and I can tell you it wasn't cheap. I think when I was 16 I had made about $3000 in a year of work, which doesn't buy much.

ok.. so maybe i dont have a ZL1.... sorry for pullin the wool on u guys... got a little excited... i was being an idiot. I do have the money to buy a car but parents will not let me until i have at twice that amount... first forum and i already F*&^% it up.. wow... god im stupid... my parents have to loan me my moms Lexus RX330 to get to work and back... IM SORRY GUYS!!!! I am however looking at buying a project car... something to have fun with and gain knowledge in the process... SO FREAKING SORRY!!!!

I will give you respect for being honest now. What you will learn is that this site is full of Camaro enthusiasts who really know their stuff. The great thing about that is you will learn a ton about Camaros and Cars in general. This truly is a great site to be a member of.

It's all good.

This thread is just worthless, you guys think he has the money or know how to build an 850hp turbo car, then make a stament like he wants AWD and he has slick size treaded tires O ya...the car wont hook in first!!! If that car was even close to real, and had a 850hp big block turbo setup it wouldnt hook in ANY gear without some real modifications like a hole new tube pro mod chassis under it!

[kickasswelch69]

SWEET! now is there a way to delete threads? one i need to delete....

Gotta change my pants after I read he was using a 1969 Camaro ZL1 Copo as a daily. haha

[SSOOCH]

Don't delete this thread. It's cool. I have a thread floating out there somewhere that has a picture of me having sex with my Camaro (not really) but it defined who I am on this site. This thread will define you. It's all good. Don't sweat it. And come on Guys, he admitted He was wrong, stop busting his balls.

But I do think the MODS should change your name to ZL1AWDTURBO though!
