What did you get done on your Camaro this weekend ????



*I finished the 12 bolt install (still need to bleed brakes)
*Finally got my lug nuts and installed rear wheels (and was shorted :mad:)
*Removed front wheels to be polished (snowing out) should be done today
*Installed front drag shocks

-Continued with my drivers bucket rebuild.
:)
-Tried to convince a buddy to let me show him how to cut out and weld in the lower quarter replacements on his Cougar.

Not a thing. Plowed another 5" of snow around the shop and barns and house.. its fun tho, even the Mrs. went along as co-pilot and took a few pics of me maneuvering around the driveway at the house. :D

Getting ready to the pull the tranny so that I can get the 3rd gear syncro's fixed.

It snowed just when I thought spring was around the corner it snows.Back to the Q:notta.The only thing I have to do is change the oil,raise my vent on my housing,and clean the underside where it spued gear oil every where.

The wife and i with 20 friends went out on the town Friday night :beers:, we rented a party buss and boy its been years... Funny how the younger generation party's any way it was allot of fun and a big hang over :yes:.

Today running some new gas pipe from the gas meeter to the inside of the garage and to the fixtures.

Today running some new gas pipe from the gas meeter to the inside of the garage and to the fixtures.Are you a gas fitter buy trade I am a Plumber/Gasfitter out of 486.Have you ever heard of putting cement on the threads and wire brushing them to get the oil off.It helps so the cutting oil doesn't break down the integrity of the dope just a point that you may already know you may be using trac pipe and not screw pipe and this may not even apply.Anyway hope your hangover go's away and you get some pipe run....

I'm going start my car up before we get hit with 10 inches of crap..oops snow... maybe i'll go for a quick blast around the neighborhood

Thats what gave me the start on this thread :beers:

Finished the seat!! :hurray:
Black Comfortweave

Cleaned, Glass beaded and coated door/window hardware and mechs, Kurt came over and welded the drivers side qtr seam to correct it (back too far), put the pass side qtr fuzzie on, boy that was harder than I thought!

Fabricated and welded in a new sub frame mount because the one under the battery tray had corroded away. New core support and inner fender will come another day.

Saturday I finished the rear seat,but I think I overstuffed it. I wanted to make it firmer and puffier but I think I went too far.Sunday went to a benefit for my niece that has cancer.Turned out real good.We had a lot of people donate a lot of things for a Chinese Auction.Some of the items were 4 Cleveland Cavs tickets,3 day getaway to Atlantic City,autographed baseballs form Cleve.Indians pitchers,Ohio State football,Youngtown State,San Fran 49ers,and too much to mention.I have to thank all that came out and helped ,donated,and those that worked so hard to make it a success.

Getting ready to change over from auto to manual transmission, still can't lift due to surgery but took out the 4 speed console that came with car and cleaned up with oven cleaner then painted with SEM landau black plastic paint, I believe it came out pretty good.

Waiting to get it back from the body/paint guy so I went for a ride on the horse on Sunday..... :thumbsup:

Hey Keith,
I didn't see anything wrong with the console BEFORE you painted it. Must be the pictures.
I have to do mine as well and hope it comes out as well as yours did.
