2nd Chance Camaro - Let the Project Begin

Yes, I lost one of the Universal Joint Caps

No a new universal joint was not needed however I wanted to dust the driveshaft with a little paint as it got a little scuffed
up in the garage and I dropped the cap somewhere between my garage and the kids swing set.













So while I was trying to install the driveshaft for some unknown reason I was unable to get one of the caps to seat and low
and behold pulling the cap off I found out why.

I decided to wait till Mike came over to start the car plus I need to pick up some fuel from Winter Circle in Joliet
so I at least have some good quality fuel in the car over the winter.



Let's not forget to put the trans fluid back in the car.



Fire It Up - started right up which is awesome for a LS with a Carb.



Checking for leaks



Pulled it out of the garage but I didn't get that far.



Let's just say we didn't get that far. Yes we ran out of gas !!!

Test Drive was fun and good news the car rode great. However, we had a minor tire rub issue which was caused
by me flipping a tailpipe hanger the incorrect direction. Simple fix however I did burn a little rubber off the sidewall.

Opps



Bummer I am going to have to rewrap this tailpipe.





The Rub

Prior to winter coming I wanted to have the paint protection applied and lucky me my neighbor does this in his garage shop
so a quick 30 second drive to his house and the car will be get a little paint correction on the gloss area's and the matte area's
will get a Matte Ceramic coating to protect the paint.

Day One.









Heading back to my garage for the night and I will be bringing it back tomorrow so he can coat the gloss area.



Day Two and yes it is 5am in the morning and yep I woke the neighbors and my wife.









What is crazy after the paint correction the metallic is so noticeable.
