In a place dominated by JDM cars, it really is a jaw-dropping site to stumble upon classic American muscle. When you find cars like this in my country, lucky for you if the owner is un aware how much these classics sell. Commonly in "junk" condition, they would sell this at about $500.00 because restoring it here would cost a hundred times the price they sold it. Original parts would cost a lot as you have to import them and it would take time to collect them and get the job started. Not like JDMs, which are always available anywhere.

So I stumbled upon this '87 Camaro and got me itchy about getting it. Ironically, we found this car at a place where JDM imports are sold. But, the place is also known to find the occasional muscle classic because it's located on what used to be a US Naval base: Subic, which was once the largest in the Asia-Pacific region. I wish someday I’d get lucky enough to score an old Camaro!

Looks mint, is the engine still good? That back window looks 100% like mine! I hate my cousin for doing the most ghetto rigged tint job ever!

RockShox got any better pics of the rear? Those quad pipes are interesting and might do it on mine.

Was gonna comeback to take more pics and inquire more about it. The owner wasn't around and the guys I've asked gave me dumb answers. With just a peek in the interior and the way it's dropped, yes looks like everything is intact. And yes, the quad pipes did get my attention too.

I like it. Looks just like mine minus a couple exhaust tips!
