my never ending project.....iroc-z
Well here is my litle projet, almost a year ago i picked up this p.o.s. camaro at the junker for 120$cdn.
She looked like this when they deliver it to my home

After a really long clean up she looked like this

so winter pass and having no place in my garage she sleep outside in the cold

yeah shes there somewhere
Money was a big issue, so I didnt touch her till may......but now TIME was an issue.

In july I finaly decide to drop a nice 350 and almost blown transmission......She need a safety inspection to be driven on the road.
Here are the last pis of her......her value is a little more then 120$cdn now



And the 86 cutlass you see is the donor car for my fresh 350sbc its not an olds
feel free to put your comments
Thanks
Seb
