'68 Camaro - Another one?! Again?! Really?

[Leroy Rochester]

Good example of me = crappy / John = nice...

The trans tunnel modifications for the T101A. I made the hole, John covered it.

Awesome. Great work.

I guess I could cut out some of this baloney strokin' and show you guys how it sits today huh?

it's got the new clip on, the motor, trans and headers are in for test fit... As soon as I take the front clip off and put it back on, I'm going to turn the car around and start working on the back of it... Wait.

Oh yah, and a couple of pics of the bondo loaded OG fenders so you can enjoy the fact that it currently sits like I'm going to run rallycross with the car...

Love the history and story behind the car! Looks like she is coming along great! Gotta love a little bondo! That front clip and deck lid is going to lighten the car up a ton! Congrats on the final decision/path for the car.

You know what's really interesting about posting progress in a public forum... I can go back to the date of my last post and see that even though I'm telling myself "It's got to be close to a month since I touched the Camaro" the date stamp on the last post tells me it's actually been two months!

I've been buried with work, and more so buried with my son's baseball team (they won their division championship in Pony ball, woot!) and now their all-star team...

So, I haven't done a dang thing to the car in two months. I am taking half of July and August off from youth baseball and really hoping to make some progress on the trunk, rear wheel openings and rear suspension during that 4 week period.

Until then, it's just going to be chipping away at little things as I get time, assuming I can avoid getting distracted by my other small, non-car, non-baseball addiction... Hey did I tell you guys I just picked up an old school style BMX side hack?! Oops... What was I saying about that other addiction?!

Distractions.... FTW!

There's something I really like about this car - color combo works really well. Looking forward to watching the build!!

I have a not so secret bike addiction. 43 years old and I still ride BMX bikes (and dirt jump and MTB). You know what they say... You have to grow old, you don't have to grow up!

Thanks man. I'm looking forward to seeing it done! I really want to grind it out and make some progress this summer. Car has been off line too long. I just sold off one of my other vehicular projects ('95 F350 crew cab with PSD) to reduce my level of distractions a bit. So hopefully, I'll be able to get this old boy moving again.

On break from baseball (we played over 100 games in 2014) and trying to make some headway on the Camaro.

Got a big box from ATL yesterday and a nice big box from Jim Fay today.

I cut the trunk pan out last weekend. No worries, it was Vatican approved... I mean man, it was holy!

So, next stop is to install the watts and get the cell and upper shock mounts located.

Here's hoping everyone's having a good new year!

Shoot, completely forgot I started experimenting with the rear wheel openings. I'll have to post that circus up later, once I get it a bit more sorted...
