You going to paint that trans. pan?


no going to replace it when funds allow shouldnt be to long, I was going to then the trans ended up needing more work so left the old one on for now somewhat panelbeaten out.:rolleyes:
Just remember where i live american parts are not that common and twice the price due to our dollar only worth 68 us cents and freight is expensive.
And i was told the cheaper trans pans are prone to leaking.

great lookin camaro.. love the color, the rims realy set it off.


Cheers, as you may have read I waited 5 months for those wheels to arrive in a container after ordering from ebay (never seen in person or on a car) so was happy how they looked.

Slowly making some progress got cooling system finished and accessories etc mounted, made some little brackets to hold the wiring going over the manifold as trying to keep it tidy.
Just got accelerator cable and fuel pump/lines then can start it.
Also adding 3 gauges which are in the making so will add pics soon
Not doing much at the moment as have 2 weeks off as had sinus/tonsil surgery a few days ago so sitting around doing nothing:confused: as sore as hell!
Also finding it hard to find parts that are not chrome as I want black/alloy look but everything is damn chrome!!
Heres a few pics I have on file.

Have done most of the wiring so will install and take a new pic in a few days
