82-I made my own spacers out of some old rotors i put in a lathe and used as spacers, then i got longer ARP wheels studs, But this brake and wheel setup is now on my Camaro, and im going with 14in Brembros and some custom wheels to fit my narrowed rear

Bayer, i dont think the TA will be done for this summer, but ill have my camaro out and about, we should definatly have a meet

I know it is a little old, but it is a nice build that never got finished. Just wondering if there is anything NEW.

Reaper, ive been really busy with side work and other projects and money always wins over my own projects lol,( ill have to snap some pics of my side jobs, im currently doing a Detriot speed mini tub and Fab 9 narrowed rear in a 68 right now, and droping a supercharged ls1 in it down the road) , it will always be an unfinished project, but i have worked on the car a bunch over the last few weeks, basically finishing up powder coating brackets for the motor and such, i also donated the old zo6 brake setup to My camaro and im going to go with a 14in brembo setup im almost done piecing together. I also have all the stuff i need to start wiring my LS1 ECU in the car, and moving all the wiring, fuse box, and ecu inside

You sir, are a craftsman. Mad props. Car turned out beautiful.

I'll be the annoying 100th person to say I think you should have kept it a Formula, but it's your project so feel free to tell me to pound sand.

Another great thing is to see the rescue of an LT1 car. Clean ones are getting more and more rare, but you just upped the count by 1.

CT is a far drive from Bowling Green, but it would be fantastic to see this ride at the LTX Shootout.

Idle thats not me in the pics thats my dad, im only 25, ive been getting some work done to the T/A this past 2 weeks, engine and front suspension are completly out and im prepping and painting parts for the new turbo motor, and im goin to begin to wrap my turbo kit. I Just bought a 92 Gmc Typhoon to mess with, and im finishing up my LS3 for my camaro and planing on getting that ready for paint and spraying that in the next to months so progess wont be to crazy on this, and ive been lucky and been swamped with side work for a long time now and thats what pays for all this so i cant turn that away.
