Thanks it has been a great project.

Did 26 mpg on the Power Tour last year except for the 3 hour idle into the WS Dells venue. Never overheated the car that is.

Great looking car and I an not sure which was worse the Iowa or the Dells

[79 Camaro]

Iowa was a treat also. The steep overpass bridge into the casino had a few stick shift cars worried.

The drive from IA to WS was good. I liked the burnout box in that little town, don't recall the name.

Thanks for all the great comments.

Just back from a few days off.

Very balmy -6 degrees in sunny Carlos MN.

Just for fun this afternoon I fired up the Camaro. Started with the turn of the key. Unlike my truck no heated seats or steering wheel. Hard to believe I drove a Camaro (not this car) in the early 70's every day. Nice wide 60 series tires all around.

Hard to believe I didn't run into any thing. Was great for doing donuts in the mall parking lot!

Warming up to a balmy -4 tomorrow. I'm sure it will still start.

Almost no snow so could even could take it for a drive. Heater works! But sorry no heated seats.

Happy to put it up on jack stands (no lift) for inspection.

Updated post.

I had a gentlemen interested in the car look at the car and he was concerned with the paint by the door handle. After his visit I had the painter look at the door last weekend. His opinion was that there is separation from the skim coat to the paint. Why? Hard to say. His opinion is that the door will need to be refinished. Disassemble the door, trim and glass. Sand, prime and recoat.

In light of that I'm reducing the price to $39500. $2500 will more than cover the repair.

Any questions please give me a call or email.
