Re: Junked Camaro fixed. Whatcha think?? All in all, I would say between $9500 and $10000,
including the car. My good friend owns a salvage yard where I got alot of stuff(Door, rear quarter, air bags, dash and front assy.) My conection at SLP really helped alot, too!!!

Re: Junked Camaro fixed. Whatcha think?? Your car shows that good things come slow and your car is a good example of that. Nice work <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Re: Junked Camaro fixed. Whatcha think?? I wouldn't do something like that but you did a terrific job restoring it from what I can see. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />
Re: Junked Camaro fixed. Whatcha think?? Good job on the rebuild. Always a great feeling of accomplishment to bring a great car back from the dead. I rebuilt my 1981 Z from a totaled wreck. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
