"Shop Beater" update!! (69 Camaro)

[fletcherscustoms]

Things are finally starting to come together!! Only got 16 working days to get it done and get it to a local show to showoff to all the locals!! All the exterior and lighting wiring is done! Man do I love the AAW harness, makes everything so easy. Bumpers are hung but still need to be aligned. Motor is fully assembled and just needs the plus wires, fan, and water pump wired. Car has been cut and buffed (oh what fun that is). Still waiting on Precision Brakes to get my brakes to me (not real happy with them right now). But all in all its all there and coming together quite nicely. Headliner and glass is going in today and then I finally get to fight with the dash and all that fun wiring!! I am quite pleased with the way the car came out!!

Lots of pics can be found here www.fletcherscustoms.com/projects/69

Started working on the car on January 28th, 2006. Put new quarters, roof, tailpanel, trunk drops, inner wheel wells, mini tubs, rockers, full front clip, painted and assembled in about 50 days working time, and only working at night after my real job. We have been busting but on it. Goal is two get something done everyday, and not get overwhelmed trying to do to much at once.

Hey..looks good!
When you're ready, send a picture of the car to me at [email protected]. I'm starting to put together a Customer's Cars page on our website and will gladly include it.

Anyone else who wants to submit their car (with AAW wiring, or course) can also send it to me! Please give me your name, car specs and if you want the picture to link to a website - send me the link for that as well.

Yeah I replaced, roof, quarters, tail panel, trunk floor,deck lid, driver front floor, and entire front clip. The quarters went on surprisingly well, decklid still needs a little work, driver door was perfect, passenger a different story. Teh shin was lined up good, but when it was rolled over, the bottom back half closest to the quarter was left about a 1/2" to long. so we had to cut the skin, reweld, and add a little to top of door to even out. Looks real good now. Got 1/8th to 3/16th gaps all around now!!
