Welcome! Sounds like a nice set of cars you got. Post some more photos of that Camaro! :cool:

[c.c.customs]

New pictures today. First coat of color.

[c.c.customs]

More from the body shop. Car was painted and cleared and wet sanded then had the emblems air brushed on and then car gets cleared again and wet sanded and polished 1 more time and I hope to get the car back next week.

[John510]

Really nice cars and they're excellent candidates for Pro-Touring builds. Hope to see you at some of the local events as I'm just down the road from you.

Thanks, Hope to have the Nova at the next Good Guys and run it on the track.
The camaro with the IRS is still a ways out 3-4 months.
Color choice and emblems was tough. But I think it will turn out taste full.

[c.c.customs]

Emblems are done. Car will get cleared this weekend.

[Seeing Red]

Looks great :yes:

[FETorino]

So......... isn't this project now in the for sale section???

Yes along with his 68 and 69 c
Camaros. Seems like a very sad set of circumstances surrounding it.

[c.c.customs]

Yes, it is. Since then my wife told my father in law about me selling them. He said don't do it. So I am tiring to find a away to get them removed from the for sale ad. Can anyone help with that?
Between work and the hospital I have been working on the nova, LS2 is installed, tail lights. The inside of the car has been sound dead. Ready to install wiring,and a/c. I will post pictures of the progress.
Thanks

[c.c.customs]

LS2/6 speed are installed. Vintage a/c under dash done. American wiring harness started. Making LS harness now and then have to order up some rims and tires.

[c.c.customs]

Had to move out of the garage.
Got the front clip on, head liner and 3 inch exhaust all done.

Welcome...car looks killer,love the color! :thumbsup:

[c.c.customs]

Took my nova to the interior shop today to finish interior. In the one picture the hood is unlatched, that is why it is up on the side. I get the car back tomorrow and will have it on the road next week.

[FETorino]

The car is looking great. :thumbsup:

I hope your father in law is doing well.

[c.c.customs]

Thanks.
Father in law goes back in for surgery on Friday.
I need to finish my nova and start back on his 34 coupe we have been building for 9 years.
That is why the thought of selling this one and my other 2 projects came about.
At the interior shop today, the nova brought a crowd of people out to look. The color sets it apart, until you look at the under side and under the hood.
I pick it up tomorrow and will take current pictures.
Plans are to get it back, put all the glass, chrome, stainless, grill and bumpers and take back to interior shop on Monday for door panel and back seat install. Car should be all done except for wheel choice by the end of next week. I am up in the air about rims and tires. I cant decide if Black, Grey, Polished, Chrome or what to run. I want a shop locally here to measure them out and have some made. Any suggestions?
Thanks again.
