Hoping to get the Exhaust finished up and will reach out to get this thing squared away. |

Awesome car!

Time to give some more updates.
Had a few big milestones. Wired the majority of the car up and got my AndrewB (Dr EFI) tune in the car. Also got my Holley Pro Dash in the car with the factory Bezel from CarChains3D. Full exhaust built as well using a deal I scored a while back from Holley from the DSE 3" Stainless 1st gen Camaro setup. Was able to chop it up and make what you see above. Next up is the real fun, like wire looming and securing of loose items, dynamet/restomod thermal and sound barrier, carpet, etc. Last BIG item I need to get done very soon is the Gen V vintage air. Hopefully the images below work: https://i.imgur.com/UlpANdf.jpg https://i.imgur.com/c8Rd6uf.jpg https://i.imgur.com/iiSpqlJ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/hi1tXZ5.jpg https://i.imgur.com/lDNbG2x.jpg https://i.imgur.com/EFyYZZf.jpg https://i.imgur.com/2esgNQ7.jpg |
Big thanks to my boy Will69Camaro for helping with the little pushes here and there and letting me use that 3D printer of his as we start making all of these little components.

Happy to see the progress. You and mike knocked out the exhaust and seat installation. We got the exterior lights working and Andrew got the tune started so we're not fouling plugs back to back! This car is close to being more and more roadworthy by the day. that console plate looks awesome, whoever made it must be awesome LOL. |
Looks really nice

Took my first long test drive with the car over the weekend. Overall, it did well. Looking forward to getting that Vintage Air in the car LOL

Thanks guys. Headed to Mexico City for a week for a friends wedding. Hope to get back to knocking out the rest of the interior over the next month or two.
Also, my wife's 68 Firebird got stripped down a week and a half ago as it is going in for new rear quarters, rear panel, filler panel, etc. |
Took a couple pics this weekend with my ZR1. Been trying to rack more miles up on it.
