Thanks. Been trying to work out some fuel feed issues. A friend made a plate to mount my fuel pump lower than the gas tank. Seemed to work on a quick test. Should be able to work out the bugs in the nesxt few months and get a good amount of driving in next spring 🙂

A few pics before it goes into sleep mode over the winter (insert joke here) and ready for a FULL season in 2008 🙂

Already have a few purchases planned for the off season. New brakes, heavy duty radiator, and a new intake manifold and carb. Got to save a few $ and ask Santa for some parts 🙂

I was counting the minutes until I got a dig from you 🙂  
I actually think I have more driving miles than pushing miles. Pooh power only goes so far.

Possibly. PM me the details on the carb. They recommended a 850 Holley for the pig. The current 650 is starving it.

Yes, do get those up! My uncle used to have one with that color combo. It was a real Z28 too. He sold it cheap probably about 20 years ago just before I got into the hobby. If I knew, I would own 2 69 Camaros now.

It’ll be out for all of next season. I am just finishing all my house projects that I promised my wife. After the holidays back in the garage.

I’ll be getting some marquez design billet taillight framing and led taillights. Sweet setup on a lot of restomods. Also looking into my 4 wheel disc setup. And of course getting it running nice and smooth 🙂

I’m already thinking towards 2009. I might rip out the new original interior and have a custom interior designed similiar to the new Camaro interior or like the crafty looking BMW’s interiors. But something new. 🙂

Still debating which billet taillights to get. What do you guys think?

1 - Rally Sport  
 ![http://www.marquezdesign.com/products/billet_rs_angle_small.jpg](http://www.marquezdesign.com/products/billet_rs_angle_small.jpg)

2 - Standard

3 - Modern  
 ![http://www.marquezdesign.com/products/billet_modern_angle_small.jpg](http://www.marquezdesign.com/products/billet_modern_angle_small.jpg)

The rally sport one is for cars with the hideway headlights and the backup lights located as a separate light. Not thinking that will work since the lights that I have, the reverse lights are in the center of the middle panel.

So I’m thinking 2 or 3.
