Project Never Enough
Its been a long time dream to mod a 1st gen Camaro. Ive built many cars and bikes but it was never planed it just happened. This project was bought with it in my head that modding was comin. You guys will have to bare with me on this project. Its going to be a long project but worth it in the end. I hope to sell my Boat to fund whats coming. If Ive added it up right Im looking at about 25k without the cost of the car. Thats doing all the work myself including paint. Heres some pics of what Im workin with.
Heres the car I bought two weeks ago. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...er2nv/maro.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...r2nv/maro1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...v/DSC_0250.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...v/DSC_0251.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...v/DSC_0254.jpg Ive started to tear it down. I know a lot of you are thinking. That guy is nuts! That car has fresh paint on it. Well it just wasnt good enough for me. Ive done many paint jobs and this one just doesnt stack up. The nice part is its been blasted. Ive put the order in for some steel for the rotisserie. I also ordered some 16 gauge for the firewall work. Next will be the tubs. Ill update as I go. |

Hi Nice project. Did you get to see any pictures of what the other guy did to it , as far as replacing sheet metal and patch work?

Looks like you're off to a great start.
What are your plans for it? |
Looks like a solid car, will you be stripping it or scuff and shoot?
|
Looks solid....the over spray all over everything is the first sign of a half assed job. The second is waves in the paint in a photo.:rofl: You can make a bucket full of **** look good in a photo. Looks like a great start though man:thumbsup:

Did a little more work this afternoon. I shaved the drip rails. I also did a little sanding on the car. Looks like the car was really stripped last go round. Only one paint job on her. The top of the car is super flat! Given what Ive seen sanding. Ill block the top and strip the rest of the car.
