Glad to see your car coming along so well. That damn car has been on my mind non-stop since I was up last Saturday to see it. The other members almost need a video or something with sound to really appreciate/get the feel of how mighty this thing is.

That's a great idea.
I'd love to hear a video of your car idling and revving up.
THANKS!!!

Default 1969 camaro

well bad news,i got my car out this weekend to clean it up and never had it out in good sunlight.i found places in the roof where it looks like where they were spotted in.it looks horrible,about the size of a softball in two spots,and there is abunch of spots mthat look like water spots under the clear.this was the second time i took the car back to get stuff fixed.i really dont know what to do.the guy that painted it thinks he did a real good job.i havnt been happy with the paint since day one but he kept saying it will buff out.not to mention he is a good friend and i dont want him pissed,but icant leave the paint like it is.he should know the paint didnt turn out like i wanted,because it was supposed to be "showroom paint".if i show him the spots he will want to spot them in again instead of fixing them right. iwanted the car to de done by summer and if i let him try to fix it and cant i will have to try to get someone else to do it and there would be no way to get it done by summer.

Sounds like only a few days repair, Fix the dents and re-clear the roof and 1/4 panels. I'd ask him, what do you have to loose.

Sounds like your only choice is to have someone else do it.
He may be pissed because you had someone else do a "better" job, but it is your car.
GOOD LUCK!!!
