Install with self tapping screw first and tap it with the hammer/dolly to set it in place correctly. Then make sure your taillight, bumper and spoiler fits correctly before welding.
Hell yeah dude it’s coming along well. Love to see you teaching your boys about cars. I think that thing would look bitchin in a deep wine red metallic color.
Still a carb engine. 383 +/- 500hp. Th350 rebuilt with shift kit Doing the mechanical side right now and then the body will follow. Was debating between the SBC or LS engine. Next project for the LS
@@MassProject I would definitely go with an ls engine man. I’ve got a 96 s10 that I’m dropping a forged turbo 6.0 in front of a 4l80e in right now. It’s so much better with the efi not only because more power but drive ability. You can make over 500hp and still get 20 mpg and not have a problem every time you go to take it out. It’s more expensive but you pay to play.
They are hard to find, not sure I have picture of it when I removed it. That was 20 years ago. In some location I just ended up grinding the old panel off. When you see the metal changing to the blue colour it very thin and you can rip it off.
Great job guys! Really like seeing a project where father and sons are working together!!
Thanks Jeff, lot more Camaro content coming!!
Nice to have your dad Camaro !!
Good job. Thanks for the help. I have an 81.
Thanks, any questions do not hesitate!!
Great job! I’m currently doing the same thing on a 77 Camaro that my son bought.

I agree, maybe the next one.
Nice car
Thanks, Will be way nicer when we are done!!
I need to do the same
Make sure to replace the inner panel at the same time
I ended up having to cut my tail light panel and trunk pan completely out. Just got it tacked in tonight
Make sure to remove all the rust and apply proper sealer
Hey man, I need to know how you do the trunk lip, the white part you had to salvage, I need to do that for mine and dont know what to do
I grinned the tail panel off after cutting it. It took a long time. You need patience.
Great work. I'm just starting my project and I'm having trouble finding all the welds on the outer panel. Do you have any pictures of removal? Thanks

@@MassProject thanks for replying. Do you still have the Camaro. Maybe one of your boys are enjoying the car?? Thanks again
Yes we still have the Camaro. Today we are cleaning the new engine block for the 500hp engine build. Will have some video on this soon.
