Trey --

And get a tetanus shot!

In fact - anyone working with rusty metal should get one -- or at least a booster!

Especially if the car has been stored around a "dirty" area...

Many people believe injuries caused by rusty nails are the most dangerous. This is true only if the nail is dirty as well as rusty, as is usually the case. It is the dirt, not the rust, that carries the risk for tetanus.

There's a cadillac in the back that if you walk 10 feet near it you will get struck down with tetnus.. Lol it's that bad..


Uh.. Anyone have any links to people doing custom turbo builds from scratch? My teacher is going to show us how to custom make headers and exhaust.. I think paint can wait. Need to get some dog dish hubcaps though.. Would be a cool sleeper.


Anyways the brakes work also so now I just have to connect the shifter and get a couple gallons of gas..

Had a long day at work, but I was excited to come home and check out the forums. I was especially looking forward to seeing if you got the Camaro running. Nice work.

Man, took 2 and a half hours to install the fuel pump because I didn't know what I was doing and it still doesn't work. Maybe something is clogging up the gas line or 3 gallons of gas in the tank isn't enough. I will have to just rig a cup of gas to the fuel pump to see if it's even sucking.
