Nice work. Get those Wheels and tires on the Camaro asap! Also, how about some pictures of the new Camaro.

If anyone is actually interested I can get some pictures up later in the week. I have spent the better part of two days going to look at this thing and then going back with a trailer to get it. And now that it's here, it is a great car, but what do I do with it?

Bob, I probably don't want to know, but what ever happened to that car? The L78 car I really want is my brother's 68 RS/SS fathom blue car we sold in 70 for a VW beetle. I found it sitting in a garage 15 miles from here, 10 years ago. I have been trying to buy that car for the whole time since I found it. I wonder if a nice running california camaro would work as bait in a trade for a non running L78 that needs a complete restoration?

This is where I am after 16 hours of wet sanding, buffing and a set of wheels and tires that were taking up space. I am happy with the way the car is, except for the drivetrain, which has to go. I think I have narrowed it down to two choices. The first would be a small block manual trans car with a vintage trans-am racer look, slightly lowered with minilite wheels and road race type tires. The second alternative would be a 427/425 type motor (haven't decided on manual or turbo 400 trans) but the look for the outside would be a 1969 copo look, with no badges, no stripes, in early drag race mode, rallye wheels, no hubcaps or trim rings, street slicks and narrow front tires. Any opinions? As some of you know I have a hard time deciding what to do. In any event the plans for this car do not call for cutting it up in any way.

I can't get the picture to post, as I think it's too large.
