Project round two: 1992 Chevy Camaro

[Darren]

first step take moldings off

Moldings will come off as soon as Jon comes over with his heat gun and takes them off. For some reason he wants to be the one who does that. I am also going to be taking off all the GFX pieces as well.

Wax n gease remover

Link to a good product? Mineral Spirits??

[TylerT/AZ28]

mineral spirits is usually a good choice. take off stickers, and tape shit off

This stuff, we have had a bottle of it for years and still have not used it all. Will also take off the residue after removing the side moldings.

Sweet thanks Jentry, I can wipe the whole care down with this right? Wont hurt anything, not that I am too concerned as the end result will be a repaint anyhow. There are just some spots that I need to get really clean and residue off before I start the body work.

Sell me those 18's!!!!

They are up for grabs. I am quite positive I will not be using them on my camaro. Heck they may end up on my blazer if they dont find another home

Jentry does want them tho, or at least I think. They are not going anywhere right at this moment.

Yes, you can wipe down the whole car. It will not hurt the paint or even plastics.

Alright went out in the garage today in hopes of doing some organizing and cleaning but ended up making more of a mess! (its gotta get worse to get better right?)

I started disassembling the interior in the rear of the car so I could see what I can do from the inside with my two dents in the car. I started working on the worse of the two, by the gas cap. It was a pretty sizable dent when I started and I knew I would be able to "pop" some of it from the inside of the car. So I did... and it looks 10x better already but whats the best way to get the small dents or "wrinkles" out of the car? I know this is a bad picture but here is where I am now.

Get a cheap set of body hammers from harbor freight. Sand the paint off on that spot, use the dolly on the outside(if you can get the hammer on the inside), and very lightly tap it until it is smooth. Using body hammers, less force with more hits will get you better results.

Nice progress Darren - it has officially reached project status when it's up on all stands.

[Darren]

Thanks Jentry, I do have some body hammers and thats how I got it to the point where it is now. I will get some more patience and get out there and see if I can get it to look better then it is now. Yes Fred it has officially reached "Brent status" I mean project status,

Also because Tyler keeps asking, I am still toying around with the idea of using these. Opinions?

Can't set them onthe ground they are made for a 4th gen so the back spacing is different. I'm just trying to decide if I want to buy the spacers or if I just want to sell them. My stock wheels are pretty close to mint and I'm I'm the process of polishing them up somim tempted just to use those. But I have my eye out for the best third gen wheels, chrome irocs.
