Yea, someone got ripped off. The car was maybe worth $5000. the guy after me took a bunch of pics and threw some paint on the motor and the buyer must have only gone by the pics.
Yeah, still have it. I know you were looking for a project car. My uncle has a few Camaro’s sitting around that he is making into race cars or just for maybe a future project. If you want I can ask him for ya? But as far as mine, that is untouchable. It is still in rough shape right now. I stripped off about 5 layers of paint. It was blue, yellow, maroon, white and some metallic reddish color before. Took me about a week to strip it down with aircraft paint remover that ate through 6 pairs of chemical “proof” gloves and alot of skin on my arms for which I still have some scars. Man I hate that shit. Needless to say I have a front end clip and nice 6" cowl scoop for it but I still have to smooth out some of the kinks. Had to get new door skins which is relatively cheap but with the race cars in the garage I dont have much time or space to do much til winter. Sorry but can’t sell it, hopefully when it is complete ill be buried with it lol.
