Sounds like some nice cross country thinkin time. Give me few days heads up and I'll take the day off. Be great to see you!!

Looks like fun to me...man that floor is nice what is it?

I always have a good time af Jeff’s place but building this is kick. I don’t recall exactly what the floor is covered with. It’s a very durable industrial product. We applied it with a squegie and then we clear coated over the top. Maybe Jeff will chime in and let you know.

Hey Curtis. I never thought I’d say this but I think my Camaro looks almost as good as yours... :lol:

Great cover, I’m glad you posted it. It’s so nice I have to have a plastic cover for the cover... :)

:lol: Yeah buddy! Decent cover for the price.

Dhutton...What is the story on the Orange Z28 ?

Was going to ask that myself!!!

That is an ultra rare Z28 with factory air conditioning. :D.

It’s just a clone that sat outside for many years. I dragged it home as a builder. Seller did believe it was a real Z28 and it took some time to convince him otherwise....

Things have been nuts on this and the car has been on the back burner for to long. With a few items off my plate and the overwhelming need for therapy :sieg: I am working on the car. It's not huge progress, but it's progress and I'll take every little bit I can get these days.

This is pretty much where we left things a few months ago. Jeff has been a great teacher and I can not express how much I have enjoyed building the engine or Jeffs help.

With the crank, pistons and a BTR stage 3 cam installed it was time to install the heads that had a little work done to them thanks to Mike Norris.

Once the heads where torqued to specs we rolled it over and buttoned up the oil pan.

I built up the intake (just set in place for now) and popped the valve covers on it's pretty much ready.

Things tend to get a little busy at Jeffs shop and last weekend was no exception. Jeff adjusted and aligned the windows on a 68 and then turned to the wiring on a 69.

We took advantage of the extra muscle standing around (people) and got my engine off the stand. I installed the clutch and then we married up the transmission.

In preparation for the install I had to drill a hole in the firewall for the engine harness. I tried to get Jeff to do this. He pretty much laughed and told me to man up. This is what I get for putting the cart in front of the horse and not mocking everything up before paint and body. I'm sure Jim in cringing right now. :twak:
