I've been working on the rockers.
Has anybody else had problems with getting the rear of their rocker level? If so what did you do to correct it? Do the rockers need to be level all the way to the back?

looking good so far. one thing about metal work at that magnitude, you can't sit and think about it too much. you gotta get cracking.

Yeah I've been over thinking things way more than working that's why it sits.

Well I came across a pretty good deal on another Camaro one that needs a lot less work.
