Re: HAWKS 84' Camaro Z28 Customer Build LS2/T56 TVS2300 Maggie

I've seen this car in various stages. the first time I saw it, the car was back fresh from paint when they redid the engine bay. I've never stared at an empty engine bay for so long, but I studied it a good 5-10 minutes just taking note of all the holes welded shut, everything that was smoothed out etc...it looked phenominal.

SEcond time I saw the car, the engine/drivetrain etc was all installed and bruce was putting in some of the final touches.

The car looked amazing. Sucks waiting for picture updates, but trust me it's worth it.
