Hmm, the quotes I got from a couple transport companies were in the $1000-$2000 range anyway. It's another Camaro, I'd be paying $13k for it, which is a steal for what's been put into it.

Word. Got tired of sporting that smashing look. lol Did the work myself. Not done yet, and maybe will not finish. I may throw on a new undamaged quarter here in a couple months. Dammit ! there goes another 2 grand without making it FASTER. Let's see, for 2K i could get a S60 rear end, full true dual exhaust with Kooks long tube stainless headers and cutouts, ported heads.. AHG! oh well

Buddy, 2K wouldn't even touch half that stuff you listed.

Car is looking good BTW.

That fender is looking really good! If you're OK with it I wouldn't bother putting a new one on now.

Well I installed my panhard bar and LCA's and wow! Big differance. Car tracks a lot better going down the road and cornering is better as well. The car just feels more stable. Only orobablem is now the driver side tire rubs when Corning hard to the right. So I took some measurements an the gap between both tires and the fender are exactly the same. So I took a hand grinder to where it was rubbing and ground it out.

One small step for man, one giant leap for car.

That's the downside to a panhard bar. You get lateral axle movement under compression. Is it adjustable?

. Not to highjack. But, the tramlining I get at high speed ....I'm trying to figure out. I know performance tires translate the imperfections in the road. My suspension is suppossed to be dialed in. I almost lost it doing 110 on hgwy 26 with Turk and the gang cruising behind me. I did hit some ruts and asphalt patches at that speed. I have Hyme joint LCAs , panhard bar , new KYBs and new rear tires. Still trying to figure this out. Other wise , it handles like a dream. Took that loop by cascade cars n coffee smooth as silk at 65 mph. I'm thinkin strano 22mm rear sway bar.

Speaking of suspension. This Sunday I'm installing Strano springs, koni sports, UMI LCA w/relocation. I can't wait to see the new stance along with the new handling.

Yeah it's single adjustable. If the gap is the same on both sides how much should I move it or should I just keep grinding away cause it still rubs but not bad.
Chris: I have no clue what could happen to your car. If it hasn't done it again I say it was that patch of bad road you hit.
Joe: that's awesome man
