You can say soā¦ I recently āchangedā my engine choice. It was as easy as pulling out the wallet and emptying it. Worthwhile choice. It should be done in the next few days. The tranny has to get finished and weāll drop them all in, carefully.
Some of these too:
Not sure on if I will get to actually drive it this fall. Hoping so. Iām measuring up the wheels so I can place and order and they take 2-3 weeks ā¹ But that will give me time to assemble everything.
I am putting it in the World of Wheels show in March in our GM vs. Ford room. Hopefully I can get more driving on it than out of the garage, down the driveway and onto the trailer. ā¹

Paint is cut in on the doors, hood, and trunk. I assembled all of the interior tonight. Wasnāt that bad of a job. And looks a hell of a lot better than original.
Parts all over
Close up of color. Looks darker than what the camera shows
Newly assembled seat

Thanks š
As for the leg, yep it is. I deal with it better now, but I move slower. ā¹
Some things help make you forget about the pain, aka Camaro \> leg pain.
