Big improvement. The fit was way off! At least you had one OE part to help line everything up to.

Keep at it....I want to drive that bad boy!

Should we think of this as practice for yours?

I had another post here and then went back and read through the whole thread. I feel so bad that after all that time and how many times you have gone through this there were things that needed that sort of attention. You are a better man than I.

Guys and Gals, Let's not forget about all the good that happened over the last three years with this car. Many of you stepped up and donated a lot of money to help us out, Pete stepped up in a huge way and many sponsors helped as well...and Camaro Performers used the car for a year! This is all good stuff, we are still very greatful and it will never be forgotten!

There are a few things I want to finish, then we will respray the car and be off and running to the finish line! It's all good!

Remember, positive energy makes great things happen!

Everybody has a different comfort level with imperfection. It's his car and the way he wants it is all that really matters.

Once you get out and really start using these cars, perfection is not nearly as important as rock chips, cone rash, rain, fluid spray, are natural. The car show guys can really pick a car apart. I used to be like that but I prefer a car that is used vs. a perfect show queen. It's really not that big a set back.
