Readers’ Rides:
1968 Chevrolet Camaro
Added on July 17 by Steve Chryssos

It’s a street car. A hot rod that gets autocrossed and sees an occasional track day. I’ve owned it for more than 25 years. Chassis consists of a tubular front subframe with vette C4 LCA’s and uprights plus Afco UCA’s and R&P steering from a Ford Fairmont. Rear suspension was just upgraded from leafs to a torque arm with adj. PHB. Has Bilstein shocks, Baer brakes, Kinesis K58 forged 3 piece wheels and Toyo R888’s. Powered by a 406 small block with 10.5:1 CR. Thanks for looking /Steve

Steve Chryssos:: Thanks!! I'll post more update pix. Very proud of the new torque arm rear suspension. It completely transformed the car. Time for more braking and driver skill.

atotten:: Steve, I saw this car in person at the Rolex 24 a few weeks back and never had a chance to introduce myself. I'm in the process of transforming one of my '69 firebirds into a track car and would love to pick your brain about some of the components you've used. Is it ok to email you?
