update on my vert

I dont know if anyone rembers my white iroc z was hit pretty bad about 6months ago. Well i couldnt let the car go to the junkyard, so i bought a red 1990 vert with 9,000 orignal miles to drive until my vert would be back on the road again. i have almost doubled amount the miles but don't plan on putting many more miles on the car. my white z should be done about a week or 2. here is a link to the update pics of my car.1990 Chevrolet Camaro - bryan's Chevrolet

Looks like you might have it done in time for summer.... How much are you going to be selling the red vert for?

Great progress pics. It's good to know such a great car isn't going to end up as scrap.

yes, i am going to for sure sell the red one this time. i am hoping 18k-20k for it because it has such low miles on it and extremely clean orignal paint everthing except for cat-back exhaust. the white car should be done in about 2 weeks at most.

well i had all the reciepts for my car and almost got what i had in the car. i got 20k for the car and it now has a salvage title but, the car is perfectly straight now. doesnt really bother me anyways since the car is extremely modified anyways. can you believe it, that is the orignal bumper on the car. it was completely twisted before. new udpate pics, should be done in about a week i will take some pics of the car sitting next to my other 1990 iroc convertible.
