John's 1991 and 1992 Camaro Project's

[Gregs_gsxr]

it did a couple times

[C2YT]

So it looks like I have about 2 months before the shows start up full time. Do you guys think I can do it? Here is my current list of things to do:

- Pull engine
- Replace with 350 TPI
- Get a new chip
- Drop rear end
- Replace with my Iroc rear with 3.23s, posi, and disks
- Figure out the rear brake situation (How to make it function properly)
- Sand, fill, prime, sand, paint, sand, buff
- Reinstall interior


I think it is quite the list and will be difficult to accomplish it all in this time. I would like to actually drive one of my camaros when the weather starts to break... will probably paint the 91' first.

Your progress will certainly pick up as the weather improves. But getting body work and paint down in that time, with cool temps and spring rains...that could be tough. Nothing to lose for trying.

[C2YT]

I figure if it is above freezing then the hose will be on so I can wetsand.. lol

Need at least 60 degrees to paint

I can burn you a chip, just need to buy a G1 adapter

That's ambitious. If you can do it you will have my respect.... To hell with that. You already have my respect. Anyone who can paint a car themselves is my hero.

[C2YT]

Yep, paint won't be laid out until its warm. It will also be the last thing I do. And Michael I still plan on getting the tune from you, just need to get all my ducks in a row first.

As for pulling out the engine, what would be the easiest way? I removed some smaller things that might get in the way; radiator, coolant tank, washer fluid tank, just little no brainier items. When I pull the engine I plan to keep the harness intact if possible.

Also my heater core is leaking. It started leaking as I drove the car home when I bought it. How do you guys reccomend I fix that? I want to do it right, not half assed.

[MeenZ28]

Easy fix. Step one, remove heater core from car. Step two, toss heater core in trash. Repeat steps 1 threw 2 for rest of AC system.

[C2YT]

Hahah I like your advice, but I actually just did some digging and it doesn't look to horrible. Its not full race car status yet.

[MeenZ28]

Neither is mine but the bay looks so much cleaner without all that junk.

[C2YT]

Great.. one of the many downfalls of being 17.

Lied about packaging some soup for my grandmother, as me and my brother see her every friday to take care of her, and my mom found out. Currently grounded for a month from the garage.

[Gregs_gsxr]

pissed off momma and granny, 4 weeks is going to be long time, better kiss some ass

[Atrus]

Funny how things change when you get older. I wish I could be grounded for 4 weeks...that'd be most awesome.

[DynoDave]

Live and learn, John. Live and learn.

More time for homework, car planning, and show boards.

Lied about soup?!

NEVER LIE ABOUT SOUP! C'mon man, it's one of the unwritten commandments.
