lookin good, i found it easier to put the trans on before putting it in the car. not much room for lining everything up and putting bolts on after.

Justin:% sped i just pulled the bell housing
Bill..IDK
Sammy..Parts are not done yet
But something happed today that made this whole project worth while
Two years ago i Sold my 87 camaro this car
Notice the hood on the car...Well apparently this car was bought without my knowledege and stripped out in a timeframe that i hadnt visited the shop in a while...So im farting around looking at the tailgates and i see a gray hood out of the corner of my eye and BOOM find this
I know its my old hood due to the black/blue paint on underside along with the hood pin setup and a couple other key hints.....Ive been kickin myself in the *** for 2 years for letting this hood go due to its all fiberglass and hard as hell to get ahold of so naturally it home now and going to get resanded and primerd tomorrow..Im so giddy lol
