Need help finishing Project
 
Hello All,
Since 2008 I have been working on my project car. 79 Camaro Z28. Sad to say that after 4 years and countless dollars I still havent been able to drive it. I have rebuilt this car from the ground up. New everything. Even cut the roof off and welded a new one on. The motor is rebuilt starts and runs. Unfortunately I have no idea how to run the vacuum lines and water lines, and some of the electrical. Im only 19 and have no confidence in even attempting to give this a shot, and finding info/help in my area is next to impossible. I live in Rochester Michigan so Im asking you guys if you know a mechanic, or someone you would trust with $20,000 to help me out, and I would be willing to pay them.

I need vacuum, water lines, and electrical. Thats the last step to getting it drivable, I can put the interior and components back together.

Let me know what you guys think. I will try and attach a pic later

Thanks:icon_starwars:

Put it on a trailer and swing by. Bring Budwieser. I'll hook you up. But really, I would help if you were in the neighborhood.

First I would never tell anyone up front what I have to spend on the repair. That can and does affect the price.

Are you doing a stock resto? If not the vacuum lines are a lot less forgiving. I think you can be talked through the rest. Your close enough that the engine runs. You should be able to get this. I could take your 20g but I'm not that way. Even though I would drop my career in a heart beat to build cars for a living. I almost have the tools to do it.

Anyhow. Get some pics up of this car. Get us tons of pics, we love them here. Mostly the engine compartment up close. Put your camera on macro for close ups. This will give us a better idea. Then when it comes to do the body work then you can spend only what you need to have it painted. Your down by Detroit correct? Shouldn't be hard to find a good body guy down there.
