scay pics of damage

screwed up and high cenered he Camaro. Too little combined with a 115 mile comute every day caused this.

When I ran over the cement devider in the parking it ripped off the clutch slae clindar and half of the mounting flange.

Cut 3 pices of angle iron and made a new mounting flange. it's not pretty but it works, and was a hell of a lot cheaper then a new bell housing.

Funny how that stuff comes off so easy. My wagon had sunked my tink hydro jack into the stones one day and wouldn't come out. Thought I owuld just back up real slow and slid off it. Was lose and barley rubbin. Car backed up with ease. Stupid things ripped/ tore the shock out of the A-arm. the steel around the bolt holes just peeled back and off like a hang nail. Similar fix. Just jacked a new shock up inside the A-arm then welded it in. Should be good till the shock wears out. hasn't come lose yet.
