Got the Camaro Back from media blasting. When I was towing it I already had the trunk cut off and the quarter panels partially cut off. This ended up shearing and bending the frame rails from bouncing on the trailer. Boy did I screw up and now I need frame rails. and of course once the car was blasted you will inevitably find more rot.

Nico,

Everytime these things happen to me, I have to remind myself: If restoring cars was simple, everyone would have a 69 Camaro! It is amazing how many mistakes I've made with all my cars. I've learned to not make the same mistake twice--but I always seem to find new ones!

Don't be too hard on yourself. So far, the car is looking very good in the pics. You will soon have a very nice ride sir.

Cheers,
