it was at this point when i decided the only way to properly clean and paint my engine bay was to remove my front clip,and thats when progress slowed down had some things come up and couldnt find alot of time to work on it.so progress was slow.

so now it was time to remove the front nose wich came off pretty easily,but the bumper gave me a good ole time,took me three days just to remove the front bumper it was rusted on bad even the nuts and bolts were rusted so bad u couldnt see any threads,uggg!!!the nut and bolt kept turning together i got it to move a little bit each day finally i had enough and just cut the bolts with my cutoff wheel,now im gonna need to weld new bolts on the brackets.thats gonna be fun.LOL.so now the front bumper is off and its down to the radiator core,wich will stay this as far is im dis mantling it.

Today was my last day off, and I got the joy of learning that transmission is in need of a rebuild. Took it out, put it back in, took it back out

Keep up the quick pace!

Looks great so far. My son has 16 years worth of collecting second Gen Camaro parts. He even has a brand new never painted N.O.S. front bumper cover. If you need any parts he may have them to sell you.

[bad436z28]

cool thx greg im sure i will defetanetly be needing some,especially when i get to the interior,wish i would have know about that bumper cover before i put all that work in mine.does he have mostly exterior parts.

[bad436z28]

so it was on to do more cleaning and painting in my engine bay.
