And I sit in my office today, making vroom, vroom noises playing with the Core shifter I got in. Got a short shift rod, so I can weld, bend and re-anodize it the way I want it.

Just got off the phone with Scott, love the communication. Going to get the best job he's ever done. Love hearing that commitment.

This project start's at 8:00am Tuesday morning. I'm so pumped about this job, I am going to treat it as if it was my personal project. John.

Sub-frame is getting some dimply goodness.

Love seeing the mandrel bent rails.

After the IRS audit notification, this was nice to see.

Got to love dimples... easy to blast the powder coat gun into and ensure that everything is coated well. Although this car will not intentionally see bad weather, I do live in New England. Corrosion protection is critical.

Default Nice project

This is a very cool project. Subscribed. I haven't read enough threads on Gen 2 Camaros, so I hadn't heard about fitting a 5th gen IRS into one. This will be a very interesting project to follow. Love the description you gave about throwing it in a corner and vomit. At times I wish all roads had great corners to throw cars into.

Keep up the progress reports with pics.
