I thought you were going to say that was your newest project. lol I like the black stripes. Either way you can't go wrong..

LOL Wayne. I wish I had the coin to get a new Camaro right now. It's all going into the Bird!

Okay, thanks guys! I will stick to the plan (silver stripes).

Today I set my pinion angle and measured for the drive shaft. I will be ordering the shaft on Monday.

I also pulled the rear out as I was using the adjustable DSE leaf pads and they need to be welded now that the angle has been set. While it's out, the welder will also add 2 brake line mounts then it will go to the powdercoater.

I got the radiator back from the Welder and will get that mounted tomorrow and post some pics.

Phil, looks good. I've been beating myself up for about 2 years now debating whether or not to add flat black on my hood. Wife keeps convincing me not to but man, it just looks nasty.
