Skip's First Gens

Skip's First Gens I am a retired Commercial Fisherman. You might have seen me in an Arby's commercial back in 2016 "Arby's Reel Big Fillet" as "Captain Skip".

I am focused primarily on doing restomod work on first generation Camaros.

It runs, it moves and it stops. Still a few bugs and details but it is on the home stretch for sure. I will be listing it as soon as it is completed in about two weeks or less.

Closer every day! A few more wires and it will be ready to fire up! The months of work have been daunting but also rewarding. $86,500 and you can drive it home…

I just want to remind everyone that as a Ridetech Dealer I can sell even below my cost if I choose, I just cannot advertise the actual discount or prices. I became a dealer to get my suspensions at a discount and I need to reach a threshold every year to maintain my dealer status. If you need anything from Ridetech it ships directly from them with tracking FOR FREE. Please check with me and see if in fact I am priced lower than anyone else, thanks...

This is the stainless steel bracket I made for the dipstick. With the swap oil pan the dipstick gets moved to the drivers side. Oil filter pre filled and five quarts in the pan stick reads right in the middle…😎
