Looking good there Lucas, sorry I didn't notice your post earlier needing help with the pics. When you going to have it out of the garage? Looks like you're getting close?

I give Luke and his brother Aaron a hard time every time I see them about their cars. They've been projects for a long time, never seen Lukes in person, but Aaron used to go to the Monett cruise with his. Looks like its coming along pretty good Luke, hope it runs as good as it looks. Tell us what is inside that BBC

My wifes 71 Maverick, we recently picked up a 302 for it. Future plans are to convert the 302 into a 347 with a Procharger. Hope to have the Maverick and the Nova ready for next fall's Endless Cruisin Summer @ Ocean City Maryland.

Pretty good looking little Maverick. My next door neighbor has one they've been playing with for quite a while. Make for a nice light weight car to build up.

Hey everyone! I'm Matt Butler, owner of Silver Studio. I've met a few of you in person and this seems like a great bunch to get to know. :) I drive a silver 1982 Camaro Z28. My goal has been to keep it looking and sounding somewhat stock. But under the hood lies a 400 SBC. Lunati Bracket Master II cam & lifters .458 lift 218 @ .050 duration, Edelbrock Performer intake, Holley 650 vacuum seconday carb, Hooker Super Comp full length headers that goes down to full 3" exhaust with a set of cut outs just after the headers for wide open exhaust at the track. :) It's achilles heel though is the stock TH-200C 3 speed automatic transmission. Ever since I swapped motors the transmission has slipped through gears and is slowly on its way to self destruction.

In addition to the motor, I've gutted all of the old crossfire computer wiring harness out from under the hood, installed subframe connectors, and relocated the battery to the back. Oh, did I mention this is my daily driver? lol

I just started Silver Studio this year and after running it and working another full time job at Superior Industries International Inc. I finally decided to quit the full time job in March and pursue my business full time. With the subtraction of the weekly income from the old job I decided that mods and racing on the car is gonna have to be put on hold for a while until I can afford to break stuff again.

In addition to the silver Camaro I've also got a blue 87 Camaro Z28 with 305 TPI that I'm in the process of stripping down and possibly bracket racing next season if all goes well. :)

So anyways here's a few pics of the cars. Look forward to seeing you guys out at MoKan!
