Why not kick it into OD anyway. It would be good to have the car sooner, wouldn't it?

I would love to kick it in OD, however my wallet seems to have a problem with this. But i'm lucky, as of now I have more parts and work to do then I have money. So, i think the game plan is to save a little bit more cash a week while getting some stuff done that needs to be done before spending

Re: Calling all WISCONSINITES

welcome moomar and dranate!

Also, as many of you guys know I'm parting my 92 Camaro Rs (3.1L/700R4)
The car as of right now is just two rear wheels, a floor, and a rear end. So that means almost every part is available (doors and fenders sold.) Desirable parts like the grid tails, 91-92 gfx, hood,hatch, etc. Are still available
If any of you guys are interested PM me and help me clean out my garage!

Re: Calling all WISCONSINITES

I'm way up here on the Wi. Mi. border don't know if I can make a haul down to the Milwaukee area. Maybe after you guys meet down there we could do something in the Greenbay Appleton area or Wausau. What do you guys think?

Started to work on mine yesterday. Put the front C6 wheels on the front so far. Need to order a panhard bar and possibly spacers if I can't get the 2" spacers to work.

Not out of storage yet....just put the heads back on. I'm adding forged pistons, cam and a blower. Hopefully I'll have it running by May sometime.
