IN THE old style: HIGH PERFORMANCE & SOUND IN A SUPER SPORT

摘要

IT'S BEEN SAID THAT YOU CAN NEVER REALLY OWN A CAMARO SUPER SPORT - YOU CAN ONLY HOPE TO POSSESS ONE FOR A WHILE. Still, when Tim Slager picked up his 1967 SS a few years back, he knew right away that he wanted to leave his mark on the car. "We were looking for a car to resto-rod or high performance-ize without destroying the value of a legitimate Super Sport," Slager explains, "so this became kind of my own version. It looks like a Super Sport, but it's my own deal." An experienced builder with restoration experience stretching back decades, Slager and his son handled all of the Camaro's body and engine modifications in their garage, overhauling everything - transmission, brakes, frame and interior. But, when it came time to outfit the car with a show-worthy audio system, they deferred to the pros at Auto Toyz in Coralville, IA. "I kind of let them have a free hand with the system," Slager says, "so I had no preconceived notion of what it would look like."
