      New (future) project.

      Well I scored this 69 Camaro last week for the grand total of FREE, and will be starting on it when I get my 79 done. It does need some work though, and by "some" I mean a whole freakin' lot.

      Wow! Now that is a nice score! That car looks nicer than mine before I started. And you got it for free! That is a sweet deal!

      I just bought a '96 Firebird with an LT1 and will be swapping it into my '78 Type LT Camaro. From your pics, it looks like you've got a nice second gen EFI project going. Have you documented any of your work and what it takes to make the swap? Just looking for pointers. Nice Ride!

      Looks to be in great shape compared to some of the projects Frank at Prodigy starts out with.

      Thanks for the replies guys. It really isn't in too bad a shape, though I've found a couple of bondo spots underneath the primer. Shouldn't be too bad though.

      Boyd: I used an EFI system out of a 91' L98 motor. Although I planned on using most of the factory stuff, the only factory part out of that swap I ended up using was the computer itself. I still might be able to help you though. What kind of questions did you have specifically?

      Can't beat free goods. What kind of master cylinder are you using on your 79 with the Hydroboost setup?
      Thanks,

      I used a late model Camaro master. I have yet to test it out though, but in theory it should work fine with the C5 calipers I installed.

      Thanks for the reply, I like this style over cast iron due to not having to paint it. I hope it works for what you have planned and it looks great.
