Tranny is in and I also put a new throwoutbearing in too before putting the tranny in!


Driveshaft is painted and new U-joints are in!



Painted the rotors silver so the rust won't hit them.


There she sits with the interior in just need to put the shifter on and centre console:


Left to do Monday:
- Front brakes and rotors
- Put coolant back in the engine
- Install driveshaft
- Fill tranny with fluid
- Put new tires on
- Front e-brake cable

 

Looks good, have you been able to drive her yet? If so how does she ride?

Nope, haven't driven her since about a month now. My fingers are crossed that all will be good once I get her back together Monday!

 

Any Updates? Love what you did with your's. Keep up the good work

you might want to check your back wheel wells for rust to. i had little blisters in the undercoating when i took a screw driver to them rust came out and had a few little holes. i patched them and painted them with por15 before applying undercoating.

i was under my car and did see any rust on my floor pans but im gona pull my carpets up when i get it back from being repainted and check them out.

 

Thank you Adam9066!

The tailhousing bushing will arrive tomorrow. We're going to put it in and test to make sure the driveshaft goes in. If all goes well, Wednesday we're putting the tranny back in!

 

Well, the tranny is back in the car along with the 1-piece driveshaft. The new e-brake cable is on too.

I got the car running! She's running a little rough, but I'm guessing that I need to run her for a bit and let the computer re-adjust itself. I'll also check the plugs to see if they are fouled too. Tomorrow is the drive test. I'll post some pics too.

 

I drove the Camaro home today! The fuel problem was a vacuum leak that I fixed.
It's still hard to get in gear. Almost like the slave isn't pushing the rod in far enough to change gears. I'll get that worked out this week. I am getting it inspected on Tuesday. Wish me luck!

 

Well, I couldn't take the car being dirty any longer! So, I gave her some much needed attention!
(I think the salad-shooter rims actually look pretty sweet!)
