Getting ready to pick up the 69 camaro at Mikes Custom cars
 
Practicing pulling wheelies with my new short wheel base camaro. Getting psyched to pick up the sheet metal, gonna trailer the hardware to Mike and bring it home as a roller.

Mario,

Mapquest says 671 miles, Im in northern Jersey, I rented an enclosed trailer for the trip. Was it 12 to 13 hours for you? Did you see the red shell?

No Rich Mike had it in the booth:( He told me about it though:faint: Can't wait to see it get those pics rolling.. It was exactly 11 hours each way I averaged about 68 to 70 mph the whole way. If you have access to a Garman gps its the sh!t..

Joel145 08-24-2009 05:51 PM

Hey! is that going to be one of those new pro-touring smart camaros, kinda like this Lambo:D

DOOM 09-24-2009 06:20 AM

67ragtp 09-24-2009 11:20 AM

DOOM 09-24-2009 05:20 PM

DOOM 10-09-2009 07:01 AM

Okay Rich anything??? I want to see this car... Between you and Wayne your killing me.. Do we still have paint issues??

Hulley 10-27-2009 03:44 PM

Hey Richie whats going on with the car? You pick it up yet? Your killin me here! :unibrow:

67ragtp 10-27-2009 04:25 PM

Mario/Steve,

Its killing me more, Its my understanding that the paint issues are resolved and theres still a hood and deck lid to be painted and wet sanding the whole car . I can only hope that it will be done soon, its out of my control. Its been a long time.

Hopefully Wayne and myself will get some good news from Mike soon- Thanks Rich

Steve1968LS2 10-27-2009 04:38 PM

The anticipation is brutal :willy:
