2nd Chance Camaro - Let the Project Begin

[syborg tt]

I want to make the car as easy to work on as possible so, I am spending a little bit of time now that will hopefully save me time in the future.



If you go way back you will see that I ran all of the wires that go into the trunk through the drivers side rear quarter. This enabled me to pull
the wires out through "B" pillar vent. Which made it easy to wrap each wire loom individually and pass it over the wheel tub into the trunk.







Eventually I moved over to the wires in the trunk.



I used weather pack connectors on all connections.



Of course I labeled everything.





I had hoped to finish this project but unfortunately it was late and I needed to get up early in the morning so I called it a night.




side note.
Yep, I actually got stuck in the trunk when I was doing this and nope I couldn't reach my phone to call my wife to help me get unstuck.

Eventually, I just relaxed for a couple minutes (which felt like an eternity) and I was able to unwedge my elbow from the rear quarter.

Since, I have had to get myself tucked back in the trunk with my arm once again reaching into the abyss. I figured that I best not do what I did the last time. This time I put my phone where I could easily reach it and I also didn't do that extra reach into and over the wheel tub. So I think I learned my lesson and next time I might even take a pillow in with me.

I talked to Mike earlier in the week and once again he came to the rescue to add the helping hand. He also brought the his
assortment of 3/8's hose clamps as I needed a few to plumb the fuel tank vent.



Of course I picked the really cool spring clamp one.



Tanks ready and going in !!!



I think I said " Don't Scratch the Tank " at least twenty times before I carried it over. I hope the "Hello Kitty Towels" protect it.



Tank is in and we didn't scratch it.







Next up I need to find the filler neck.

A good friend has been using this fitting on the fuel rail for years so he suggested I buy one.







I like how it keeps it close to the rail.
