About battmann’s Garage
My first car
Technically my first car was a 1985 Cutlass Supreme, but that car never got on the road - the frame was damaged and it wouldn't pass inspection. So my first roadworthy car was a 1986 Oldsmobile Calais.
Car I wish I still had
I've only owned 7 cars so far and I still have 4 of them. I kept all the ones that mattered.
My dream car
Any '70-'73 split bumper RS Camaro. Lucky for me I own one - a 1972.
Car clubs I’m in

- Hey battmann, The color of the flames on Ramair1 are "Absolute Purpleleen" Chromalusion, I think it's a Dupont paint product. (not for sure though) Out of all the Chromalusion paints this one changes the most. Thanks for the comment! :-)

I'm still alive
Nov 17, 2008
Been a few months since I've been on the site. To bring everyone up to speed: In late July I installed a 700R4 tranny in my Camaro. The tranny only lasted a little over a month. I guess a stock 700R4 can't handle a supercharged 350 engine. The torque...
