As you can see it is very clean and will not take much to clean prep and coat before it goes back together. rear end is out and the gas tanks as everything will be new going together.

Not much left of the suspension and frame. Looks like I parked it where I shouldn't of...Frame will head to Powder Coating and then this can all go back together.

So what Motor are you putting in it if your selling this one.

Marty,
It is an LT4 out of a Corvette that I had built. It is ready to go in with the tranny. Just have to get the sub frame back from Powder Coating. They need it all this week as I just dropped it off this morning.

Gives me time to address the underside of the car, the rear suspension and fuel tank.
Enjoy

Mike, It is in the HRIA/ARMO booth inside the main hall by RideTech in Hot Rod Alley. They take 6 cars each year for the inside booth to show company parts on cars from the industry. This one has a bunch of those.

See you next week for the tour, looks like I will be driving the Goodguys yellow 69 Camaro and not my 70 Camaro.

I received the new plastic dash bezel and have also replaced the fake clock with a tach in the dash. The tach is made by Shiftworks and comes with a little box that runs the tach right off the (-) side of coil. The new bezel looks good the old one was not bad but someone had broke the wiper switch off it at some point in its life. Installing the Retro-fit radio in the dash and that part is ready to install.

Rick, It is a Budnik new design wheel that you will have to come to the ARMO booth at SEMA or wait until after and I will post it here.

top secret...:secret:

Did a few more things to the NOMARO since the powder coater is taking so long on the sub frame.

Painted the whole bottom of the car and the firewall.

Now to send the TCI items to the powder coater and get all this stuffed under the car. Budnik Wheels were cutting the wheels yesterday so those should be here soon. Working on getting as much done before I leave on the tour for two weeks.
Enjoy Ed :thumbsup:
