Re: What did you get done? Thanksgiving edition
We went across town to my GF's parents & watched the Cowboys win while chowing down. I ate well but didn't over do it.
Wed afternoon I got my notched crossmember + front frame section cleaned & rattle canned for the 68. After Thanksgiving, I started re-installing the c.member but ran into some alignment (or lack of) issues. I was on hold until Sat night when my buddy came by & verified my method of measurement was accurate (the front c.member is not 100% square w/the drag-link but measures square/diagonally on the frame ). I still need to drill some new holes on the side of the frame since everything has been moved, but it's progress. Ken.... Get some fresh pics of the Camaro. I bet alot of people haven't seen just how nice of a car it is (or was ).

Re: What did you get done? Thanksgiving edition
Dang, that thing is screaming "I love the 80's", as are the sunglasses and hair-do on the model/driver/wife?
Cool pics though, and neat story Ken.

Re: What did you get done? Thanksgiving edition
Awesome 3rd gen man! Class act. That car only needs the graphics removed and a good detail job away from being back to modern and restored to glory.
Wow! That's a keeper. I like those wheels a lot. With the cowl hood, the black paint and even the tail, it's a pretty mean looker.
