Hey Will, I just read thur your whole build thread , awesome read with lots of informative info and great pics is always a bonus ! The body shop graveyard stories are always a horror show !!! However you must have a great deal of patience to great thur it. The Camaro looks awesome and good luck to you as you finish it up , thanks for sharing . 66tintop

I really appreciate you taking the time to go through my thread. Most the time it seems like just a sound board to journal/log my thoughts and progress on.

Today was a big day as it's the first day the car has legitimately seen the street. And it was AWESOME!!!

Got about 20-30mi in. Got to see some throttle in 2-3 instead of a little in first. It's fast. Damn fast. Faster than anything I've had. And by a significant margin. Haze 345 drag radials at 50-60mph fast rolling into throttle.

I can't wait to get it tuned and turned up!!!

light tint the bottom lights to match your headlights, Match the trunk area between the spoiler and the tail panel and then you are set. nice work

you and nine ball need to get pictures of the cars together!

must be a awesome felling...congrats..can we get some pictures of the 240 please.

That is Sick! Good Luck.

Congrats, Will! Have fun with the car. Let us know what it makes after it's tuned and turned up.

I hadn't thought about tinting those lights. That's a good idea.

Not sure I'll match under the spoiler. Worried it may look a little weird since you'll still have body color under it on the sides.

Yea we do. Now that I can get mine out of the garage. Maybe a better photo can exist than this one.

It was very awesome. I'll dig up some 240 photos. Quick info is big turbo 5.3 and a built auto. It's gone 10.5@137 so far!!! Lot more left in it.

You will definitely know when I know. My guess is it's around 650 as it sits untuned on 9 psi. Tune and more boost and shooting for 1000 on pump gas.

Awesome Will! Happy for you man, it has been a long road! Will have to do some cruising sometime in the near future

Congratulations Will, glad to hear you got it out.
