Re: 68 camaro
it is getting closer, i have spent the last few weekstkaing care of the million little things that always seem to take forever. I got the dash all repainted, inner and outer heater assembly's in, brake booster, mc installed, new wiring harness. Hopefully i will be able to fire it up this week and then it will be off to the painter to get the hood painted. I think the finish line is in sight.

Re: 68 camaro
That looks awesome, you did a fantastic job. I love to see the original dressed big blocks way more than the billet jobs. They're just have class and balls all at once.

Re: 68 camaro
It has been awhile since i posted anything on this car so i thought i would update the thread. The car is almost done I have small bugs to work out. I have spent last few weeks getting the wiring, vaccum headlights, heater, and all the misc stuff done. I did take a coil out of the front and put a narrower wheel and tire on it. Got the hood painted and rubbed out, New exhaust. Last weekend was the maiden voyage and we put around 50 miles on it. With a big block and 4 speed this thing is blast to drive. I still need to install the new glass, stereo and detail it then it's back home to the owner and i can back on my truck. Let me know what you guy's think.

Re: 68 camaro
Thanks. I haven't had much time lately to work on my truck because work has been really busy. I try to get a couple of hours a week if I can. I appreciate the compliment.
