Those days are back, and Jeff is reliving them with his Camaro. The car is a combination of a base-model body and all the trim from a rusted-out RS/SS car. Since it wasn't original, Jeff thought it would be OK to add a GM crate 454 in place of the 396 along with a 4L60E transmission. He also added the 18-inch American Racing Torq-Thrust II wheels and a set of Baer 13-inch brakes in the front and 12-inch brakes in the rear.We Say: We think the days of cutting up '67 Camaros for Pro Street are over. Cut up a Fox Mustang instead.
