You really cleaned that car up! Looks great man. I don't like the black plastidip(?) you put on the wheels, they look better chrome IMHO. But I like just about everything else.

Keep it up man.

Re: my camaro's story, pic by pic.

Great job man. Looks like you are having fun working on it !!

Awesome engine job. Must be nice to get rid of all the junk sensors and relay crap ....

I just grabbed a set of those headlight covers too, still in the box. How are they ? Did the stick on tabs work or did you use screws ?

Nice- best of luck - car looks mean and pissed off.

And thanks for showing the world that we have trees in NJ ! LOL ... and log cabins.

I know what you mean about needimg a hood . I too did a 305 to 350 tbi swap. I needed a 1" spacer to allow clearance for the egr valve. I went with a 3" cowl hood and really like the look. Hopefully the above link works to see my progress. If only I had your budget. Great work.
