Factory style wheels in today's diameters is money on a car like a T/A! They look period correct matched with better handling!

Agreed.

I grew up with these cars, and from day one white worked on them IMO.

Can't be said for most cars.

Skip, we agree completely. Never been a fan of white until we started looking at TA's more seriously. It just works as you mentioned.

Stopped by the shop yesterday afternoon to check the progress on the Camaro. Here is some updated pics. The guys were putting the inner fender wells back on as I was leaving and getting ready to reinstall the radiator core support, radiator, gas tank, fuel line, coils, fuel regulator and then plumb the engine for the initial fire up. The exhaust looks great and those Dynatech headers are just money.

The truturn drag link bracket was contacting the oil pan. Anybody experienced this and have a suggested "fix"? I didn't take a picture of it hitting the oil pan (brain fart!) but if you look at the above pic you can see the clearance that is available with the tie rods and OEM drag link.

Our TA project is heading back to West Bend Dyno from the painter to begin reassembly. The flares are back on and the Trans Am graphics add just the right touch of color.
