I said it once already but I'll say it on more time. What an AWESOME Camaro! Chad, you and I share the enjoyment of being new Camaro owners! A few questions:
1. I am surprised the the intake is not a tunnel ram set up or a high rise unit. The hood scope sure looks ike one could fit under there! Is that the original unit? 2. I was just wondering if the side view mirror had a Chevy emblem on it? Thanks Chad! GREAT CAR! -Dan

Here are some more photos after most of the clean up work has been completed. Several days have been spent removing a small family (dead) in the car, 30 years of grime off the undercarriage and engine compartment. Chad and I agree, it is better he own it as I would have a very hard time not doing a complete restoration on the car. Thanks to Ron for supplying some original Power Beam headlights today to replace the darkening originals.

cleaned up engine compartment. It was interesting to find metalic blue inspection markings on both hood hinges. I have never seen those before. They were only several months old when they were removed and the fiberglass hood added.

Nasty headers. Changing oil and removing the starter not for the faint of heart.

Undercarriage. Very faint evidence of green overspray on some parts of the undercarriage.

Rick,
Code 48 is on the tag and is original to the car. Only the white stripes were applied by the Harrell shop. Rick
