I have the same alpine screen in all my cars and the Haltech IC7 dash in all of them to. O need to get an older car and do a build. I'm itching to but the wife is protesting 😂😂

As a teen crossing over into my early twenties I used to be avid Car Craft & Hot Rod reader back in the 80's, but then I stopped because every new issue had a Camaro on the cover. I Figured Car Craft should have been rebranded itself as "Camaro Craft". While I still love the 80's and pine for it once in a while, it's deja vu all over again. Feel free to use "CamarotopiaLA". I have not trade marked it. I think it has a nice ring to it.

@@alexvelez2141 well of course if your where they have car shows all the time. But most places you don’t see them like that. And yes there’s always cars for sale. Can also buy brand new 69 bodies from classic industries for awhile now. They used to only cost like 9k but it’s been along time since I looked I’m sure price way higher now. Also not as many SS or RS/SS were made there was only like 40k SS cars made in 68 so definitely can’t be to many left in comparison to US population. Many people take 6 cylinder cars and call them SS cause they’ve modified them so much you have a hard time knowing the truth.
