Looks like it has alot of potentional.......remember the sky is the limit.

Those Camaros are HOT cars. I just love the look of them. Good luck with it.

Sounds like a load of fun. I wanted to do that with my dad when I was 15. I found a 64 1/2 Mustang that needed some TLC, but I never could convince my dad it was a good investment.

Nice stuff, hope you have some fun with it. At the moment I'm trying to find an rx7 for a project car, going to be looking at one tomorrow hopefully.

Well right now it doesn't have a motor or a transmission but we have one ready to put in (350) we are going to get the bodywork done doing it ourselves and get the interior fix up then we'll put it back together. the blue color @ the bottom of one of the pix is the color he wants except for a metalic electric blue I post as we get stuff done. thanks for the reply and I'll come here to ask ?'s about some stuff since I'm new to this project car thing. Thanks Gibb

Looks like a excellent adventure, on a excellent car! Only thing I see wrong would be the color of blue he wants... Its just to *bright*, maybe a red or possibly a yellow that bright, but not a blue.

Looks good tho, will be a fun time.

Scorps · 09-15-2004, 10:09 AM

I wish I had the time and money to do a job like that...I have always wanted a camaro. Hope this makes you and your sons relationship stronger

Nice job Woody

The color that he chose doesn't actually show up that bright. I photo shopped it with the blue overlay and with the brown car and that blue overlay it was darker. your right the blue by itself is to bright. I like the way it looks maybe a little darker. But you did a better job of photo shopping then I did. Thanks for the input. I've been trying to push red and black. maybe red car with black fire at the front end what do you guys think? I seen a pic of a car somewhere on the net with that but I don't want to do the same design as someone else I want it to be original but not to off the wall..Thanks again for the input.
