So happy to see a trans that keeps that old school mechanical feel. Modern internal rail shifted transmissions just feel like toys to me. You are working with a very nice selection of parts!

Moving along well.

Do you plan to jack it up in the back with some shackles? Stance will make or break it:-)

Geez, before paint that sheetmetal looks like a brand new car. I am guessing this is not a Chicago area rust bucket, Dan??

Bill,

Yes, this 1979 Z-28 Camaro came from Florida....my client has owned the car since 1987....all 100% original body panel car, except for the trunk lid. A very rust free Camaro.
