    1969 Camaro

    The paint is a little rough, but we plan on keeping it original color (glacier blue). It will be awhile before it gets fresh paint though.

    Time for a new round of upgrades, about to start ordering parts to do power steering and a/c!

    Buttoned everything up today, put some fresh gas in the tank and it started right up. Pushed it down the driveway and sure enough the brakes worked awesome, after rolling it back and forth for awhile it went on it's first maiden voyage under it's own power and new stopping power. No problems whatsoever! Going to put the sway bar end links on tomorrow and hopefully get it aligned soon.

    parking brake cables are on and working, hard lines all hooked up, and it's that much closer to being back on the road! Just need to put the tie rod ends on, torque everything down and then put the gas tank back in.

    Leaf springs are in, rear end is in, just need to finish bolting up the shocks and torque everything when I set it down. Also, need to run the lines on the rear which shouldn't be a big deal, then it's time for the gas tank to go back in and hopefully it's done and ready for an alignment!

    Now that the gf is done with school, I'm not running the roads as much. Already have the rear end about ready to be put back in. Not too much left to do, had a bit of trouble with the caliper brackets and spacers the kit came with, but it's figured out and everything is as it should be. Today I should be sliding it back under the car along with the new leaf springs and I'm hoping I can get the fuel tank back there too!

    New lens.. Sony Alpha owners...

    Looks to be a nice lens, very similar to canon's nifty fifty 1.8 plastic mount and a "loose" focus ring, but damn can it take some stellar pictures in low light and crystal clear.

    Been out of the loop for awhile since the girlfriend has been taking up a lot of my time. However, I've been able to do a little here and there.....so the rear end is cleaned up and painted, and I just removed the old wheel studs and am going to put the new ones in tomorrow. I also finally received both of my leaf springs and have pretty much everything to put it all back on the car. Just need the weather to be nice and it should be back in driving condition in a few days.

    RIP BTL :(

    had the ufo for a few years and just a couple of months ago I went ahead and sold it locally knocked out 144s with it in a box built for daily ground pounding.

    ghey!! me too .... lol .... Going to a few events in NYC.... one of them being a Brazilian dance show... Can't wait to see them bubble booties!!!! lmaomDamn I'm only 19 but I wish I could find that girl. Looks like the next 2 days are going to be repeats of tonights drinking. It would be nice to find her lol just to hangout with on the weekends when I'm free. Hmm. It's crazy, I've been talking to a few girls, but I've had my eye on this new one who I've went to school with but we never talked. Just decided to talk to her one day and bam, been pretty good ever since!

    1969 Camaro

    Well, me and a friend ended up drilling out the centering pin far enough where the threaded part of it is and then we ended up beating the crap out of the pin to knock it out. All because of this stupid bolt!
