Default Had a great weekend with the camaro

Well the car is finished, but some sorting out as normal with the car. So it's not really finished, but with every rebuilt car, you have some teething pains. Although the teething pains on my car are light compared to what it was in the past. I picked up the car Friday from Campbell Auto with some instructions on how to treat it, and did just that. The car handles so much nicer then before, and they still have some stuff to do for it. The speedtech 1 inch hollow adjustable swaybar goes in this week, and along with some very light ride height changes, but will look the same. The cars power is (wow) much improved, but we could only take it to 5k, but pulls hard, very hard. The clutch has a problem, but again teething pains. I'm VERY happy at the job Campbell Auto Restoration has done to improve the car. So good in fact we took it to a few car shows this weekend and even won an award at the Bow tie bash on Saturday, then drove it over the hill on Sunday for the car show in Capitola. Here is a few pics from that.

I was looking at your pictures and thinking, WOW that area looks familar. Then i realized, I'm from there! Looks like you caught a nice day in Capitola. I miss that area so much minus the fog. I could go for some Pizza-My-Heart!

EDIT: Car looks awesome down in the village!

Hey Scott. It's all McLeod stuff. Twin disk. Has a fixed hydraulic throw out bearing, with a McLeod Bell housing. It has a problem with engagement, but the guys at CAR are fixing it, so no worries there.
