Congrats man! I know how you feel about the 20 year wait for fresh paint. I'm there as well. I may see some paint early next year.
Oh yeah, the Silver and Black on the 1st Gen Camaro's always just seems 'right' doesn't it?

I got some more pictures to share. For the first time I saw the car together and got to walk up to it and see it up close. I am blown away and very happy with the color choice. You're going to have to excuse these pictures, I was reduced to having to purchase a disposable digital camara from CVS because my wife has our digicam out in Arizona. The pictures are awful...just awful. Matt is doing the SS stripe this weekend and will finalize the job next week. I should be bringing it home next weekend and by then I should have some nice high res shots of it to share.

Thanks for the kind words, guys. I'm not trying to grandstand here but I do have a few last pics to show you guys before this thread slips off the front page and into oblivion.
The SS stripe has been added and all final assembly has been completed. I can't tell you how relieved I am to finally have the car home and have this process behind me.
At least I hope it's behind me.
After much deliberation I decided I just had to have the tail pan blacked out. I love how these cars look with it. What I can't wait to do is go to the Camaro Superfest one day and have one of those Camaro nerds come up to me and say, "Ya know...the tail pan was only blacked out with the 396 option." Then I can take my cell phone and stabb him to death with it. That'll be great fun.
Anyway, enjoy the pics. These will probably be the last for this year. After I install the grille assembly and do a thorough cleaning it's going under the car cover and I have to get busy paying off some debt, reconnecting with my wife and kids, and giving my ailing house some much needed attention. '06 was a busy year for this car.

Tony, Looks great, don't worry I painting the tail panel black on mine too, and it's a original S/B car, so too bad on them, I hope to have color on mine next month, I'm going to make the big push during Christmas, but well see, I'm going to send you a PM,
