Have you made progress on your Z? Inquiring minds would like to know. :b:

 

I have somewhat...

The engine is a bit cleaned up, all the useless wires I had before are completely gone (same goes for the dash wiring), the old exhaust is entirely off (manifolds to tailpipes is all gone)... I've got a nice new dash with a 145mph gauge cluster with dead bulbs and a non-working gas gauge (the rest works fine) ... black carpet, black seatbelts, same crappy seat till I can find a pair of seats I actually like...

I'm replacing the hatch with one I've got in the shop because it just looks nicer.

the body panels are all the same as they were before, but as soon as I find an 82-84 Z nose and fenders they'll be going on (might take awhile ::sigh::

I've also got a full Hooker exhaust (Supercomp shorty headers and a aerochamber catback) that I haven't put on because quiet honestly... I don't know dick about welding so it sat on jackstands for over a week before the 4th because I had hopes of the person I asked to come help me (and told I would pay him) didn't show up to help out... so it goes up on jackstands this weekend again in hopes I can get it done this weekend.

I bought a pair of 85-87 style IROC wheels, but haven't put them on the camaro because I don't have the front pair (and i'm thinking I'd like to go 15x7 even though the rear ones are 16x8 just to be different)

so as soon as I get the exhaust on... all shall be well

I'm giving thought to ignoring the cutout I have to put on it but I'm not entirely sure as of yet ...

I'm also going to be rewiring a few things (like a new electric fan thats been sitting in my room for about 9 months) ...

Still no center console, but I can do without that for awhile

so it should be on the road fairly soon unless for some odd reason it gets more screwed up than it already is

 

Stephanie! Rumour has it you have a new baby? What's new with you and Mark? You are missed terribly. And I am pregnant! 3 months tomorrow. Glad you are back.

 

hehe summer... other post ... tells more about it

 

Hey that's so cool, Demon! Glad to here it's going. It takes a while, I know. Mark's in that phase with his newest toy.

Hey Summer! Congtrats to you and Curtis! When's your EDD? I have a great pregnancy site fir you to visit!

Yes, we have a new baby gurl, her name is Irissa (rhymes with Melissa) Caite and she was born April 26th. She was 8#, 20" long and has blue eyes and auburn hair! She's our pride and joy!

Things that are new:

Mark's unemployed, has been since last October. Furiously looking for work before I go back to work in late August, on a swing shift 5 days, 8 hours instead of 3 days, 12 hours....BITES!
Me, I just finished up 8 weeks of maternity leave the end of June, now I'm on my 8 week sabbatical, 2 weeks into it.
Emmalee is 4 now, going on 20, and full of jealousy, but loves her new sister. She's a great momma's li'l helper.
My oldest step-daughter Patty, just graduated from highschool and will be 18 in August. She'll be starting CCC in the Fall, looking into journalism or something writing. My youngest step-daughter, Lindsay, just turned 16, just got her permit and wants Dad's new '85 Z28 T-top we just got 2 months ago.

Other than that, just enjoying my time off, trying not to stress over the unemployment thing. How 'bout you, Girlfriend? I'll PM you later with pics!
