Had a few LM1 4 sp.'s that had tow hitches. Seems a lot cheaper and you got a 350, 12 bolt and multi-leaf.

At a friends shop for front end alignment, a/c charge and a few final mechanical adjustments. As soon as I get it home the door mirror, passenger seat and door panel, sun visors and console get installed. I think I'll finally call it finished after 15 years!

I'll get some better pics after I get it home.

Here's a after / before. Hard to believe it's mostly (some new sheetmetal) the same car. I have to say I had a few knowledgeable Camaro enthusiasts tell me to part this car out after I found it due to the value of the JL8 rear. It's been a long road for this car due to life's circumstances but I am proud to have saved this particular car.

Gregg, the car looks fantastic!

Wow what a great job! The car is stunning. Didnt you live in Cali when you got that car?

WOWOWOW!!!! Great work! Great save!

Beautiful Gregg. Hope you're putting the hitch back on.

Gregg, do they offer vanity plates in your state? If yes you should try for JL8

Congrats on a great save on a super rare Camaro!

Beauty!

Thanks everyone for the nice comments.

Yes, I lived in California when I bought it. It came from a weed filled back yard in San Diego County.

I considered putting the hitch back on but have decided against it.

Lee, if I keep the car I'll definitely look into the vanity plate. Just not sure if it fits into future plans at this point.
