my new project
92 RS Camaro 305 TBI Auto with 116,000. should be a fun little project. I will be going with my build plan thread in the TBI forum. This is exactly how i picked it up. she isn't driveable at the moment because a trans cooling line has a huge leak and there is no line preasure because well all the fluid came out. I might get lucky with the trans but i doubt it. anyway on with the pics

Re: my new project
I had a busy weekend, I didn't take a lot of pictures because my hands were covered in all kinds of crap, heres is my weekend
Saturday:
first order of business was to get it in the garage, that was a workout let me tell ya. Then I got the hood off of it to make things a little easier. that hood will not be going back on the car. Ill be picking up a standard cowl hood at some point. then since the hood cable was stretched like no tomorrow and I had to unbolt the hood latch to get under the hood to begin with I pulled that out. and since the dash pad was so messed up and ill be getting another good one I pulled that too. so all in all a fairly productive day. I would have got the car up in the air but my floor jack decided that today was going to be the day it would leak all the fluid out so time for a new jack
Sunday:
Got the hood latch and cable in today, got a like new dash pad. I forgot to take a picture of that. Got the old crusty trans cooler lines out and new to me less crusty lines in, filled her up with trans fluid, changed the oil and fired her up, checked for leaks, filled the fluid to the hot line and pulled her out of the garage under her own power. Now I have to title it and take it for a ride and see if its got all the gears. It is idling higher than I would like and it definatly needs a tune up and a cat back exhaust but she runs and moves under her own power. I am a happy man
