Thrift Shop Camaro

Definitely looking badass.

You get to do the fun part of putting clean and shiny parts on the clean and shiny car...and it all fits together like it was built that way!

Looking good PK, though not exactly Thrifty.

Yes and someone that actually knows a thing or two about shocks — rather than just spit out BS — valved and gassed ‘em — so they won’t be missing any parts and they’ll be done RIGHT. And the best part — he won’t have to listen to how great the supplier was or how many go Kart races were won....

God I don’t miss any of that!

JJ Furillo FTW if you want great shocks and set up! There are others as well... just as long as it isn’t secret and isn’t sauced.

I hope nobody wants anything in their lives secret sauced lmao

Powder-coat jail. That's a new one. lol

Looks fantastic, Payton. I'm glad it's moving along for you.

How exactly do you power coat an entire car though? I thought the powder needed to be sprayed on a preheated car. I'd think it would take a long time to get the power into all the nooks and crannies which means the car would have cooled off by then.

geez we may very much live in the same neighborhood. who did you use to 'paint' the car?

Well I sold my car and left this hobby behind and strangely enough my lust for super duper performance and race cars has also faded, but I still have subs to some of the build threads and I have to say, its looking really good and almost re-excited the old feelings for a moment.

You should be very happy with sticking with it and putting together such a nicely done machine. This is one I'll continue to check in with because you're doing it right.
