Re: My 1991 Z28 Camaro build
No progress on the car again this weekend. I worked on my Air Compressor and my sand blaster. I have been getting some water threw my air lines so I added a condenser to the compressor to cool the air before it goes into the tank. I also coiled up about 20 feet of copper, and put it in my beer fridge. I ran the air threw that to cool it even more. From there it goes into my water and oil trap then to my desiccant tank. I am getting ready to put it all the test when I blast the bottom of the car. If anyone wants to see the pictures of my air setup let me know.

Did you use the gloss or satin chassis saver?

Re: My 1991 Z28 Camaro build
I'm just starting to get the parts together for my motor. I had mine painted back in 2000 and the clear coat is coming off. I may have it painted when I get the engine replaced. After seeing what you are doing it is making me want to go that route. I like the way you did the subframe connectors. I've been looking over the posts here and getting a lot of ideas.

Re: My 1991 Z28 Camaro build
Nice work, Its good to see these cars getting the attention they deserve. Some of those pictures seem awfully familiar to me, lol. Here is my two projects, both were on rotisseries, and they are both off now, and the GTA should be going for paint in a few weeks....it's a long process, trust me I know.

Re: My 1991 Z28 Camaro build
Due to some unforeseen health issues I am parting the car out. Pretty much anything you can think of I have off the the car. Most of everything is in good shape. I am going to post it in the for sale section.
Let me know what you want.
