  • Project Blue Thunder Under Way

    I would have started on my camaro sooner but due to the very cold winter (my car is stored in an unheated building) and unexpected costs have kept me from working on my car. In the next couple weeks I plan on replacing my fuel injectors, Putting in a shaved door kit with a remote so I can get rid of the jury rigged button in the rear wheel well, Fixing my coolant guage so it reads correctly, putting in new seatbelts (still looking for some) getting a new left front wheel well put in because of rust around the strut tower. New rotors and pads and wheel bearing up front. And repacing the T-Top weatherstripping, door weatherstripping and window weatherstripping. My doors keep filling up with water when it rains. And when my fed rebate check comes I will be getting new tires.

    Here are some before pics that I have.

                thats great to hear.
                I just ordered my door popper kit yesterday. Was it hard to install?
                I guess the one I'm getting has an alarm, its the 50# kit, with a remote, and an emergency back up.
                Its called Autolock
