Second one is a bit dark... but I started to just tear everything off. The car is at my friend's house so I took the doors and t-tops off and put them inside. Found the access panel to get to those tricky stubborn bolts but I focused on disconnecting everything I could see and moving parts around today. Front end should come off relatively soon hopefully... then the body, then EVERYTHING else and then powder coat for the frame.

 

OK! So after some... calculating, I have decided my order of operations: first off the frame and suspension (obviously), after that I will get all the parts together for an engine rebuild. Once the engine parts are together, I'll get interior done while the pieces are out of the car. After THAT, I'll prep for paint. After I'm done doing paint prep, or during that process, I'll begin rebuilding the engine and transmission (and probably the rear end)... drop that on the frame, spray an undercoat on the body, drop that back on, do a really thorough paint job, then reassemble the interior. That way I don't have anything just sitting around rotting. Plus I won't scuff up new paint dropping the engine in.

 

sounds like a plan. whats the time frame?

 

Time frame? Ehhh I guess however long it takes to get the money haha. Probably about a year and a half is my guess depending on how much I get out of the camaro.

 

Ordered the engine wiring harness today. I'll have the camaro painted and sold soon... and with THAT money I'll buy all the suspension stuff I need.

 

Harness will arrive this week and I got my carburetor

 

im sure there will be pics of these things posted here. right?

 

Soon as they get here
