its black now, its not a very good pic tho

its cool, you do good work. i tried putting a
digital guage system from out of a 89 ta
in my 87 ta and the color coding was different.
i just wired up the factory one. i have one of those sterring wheels too, and also got some amber front signal lights for the 85 that goes in the nose.

i would say that this car will be one bad machine
when it gets done. this kind of camaro is a little bit lighter than the z28s. ive been tempted to
turn the 85 camaro that ive got into a race car.
i still cant get rid of it. was going to just give it to the person that hauls it off.

what's a private message?

theres another pic, its not perfect but its just for now, yea that would be a good idea, thats what im doing, mine is an 85

hey do you have any ground efx??

no. i once saw a firebird in the junk yard with
corvette syle ground effects. it was like the
saleen body kit. with a row of like 4 vents in
front of the door. did you see that christmas
monster garage with the red firebird that looked
like a ferrari? thats kind of what it looked like.
i dont know if they would work on a camaro or not.
i know were a 90 iroc is sitting in a junk yard
and it has a perfect nose ground effect kit and
back bumper. i will check to see if its still there.
it might have been stripped

sounds interesting, i havnt seen that episode, more then likly its been stripped tho, but if you could get a t56 from this dude for a few hundred bucks please do, i will definatly take it off your hands

hey i have a transmission question. the tranny
its a 700r4 85 camaro. when i bought the car
they said it had something wrong and wouldnt
shift. i drove it car came with a 305 it got up to
30mph i figured it should shift it didnt. i gave it a littile more gas and and all of a sudden i slams
into second and the car went all over the road.
i went to pull off the road to go up the road were i live it slammed back into first. well i took out the
motor and tranny together. when i seperated them
the ear was gone off the torque converter. do you
think that would cause it?

at first i was gonna say check your kick down linkage, but the ear broke off, damn man i dunno, i dont kno much about converters, wheres iroc..

damn he got off, 68chevelle might kno this, or hypsi, but i think it would kinda through off the balance but i dunno if it would cause it to do allthat unless theres internal damage also

it had one side and it had split right down the
middle.

hey so whats wrong with this 85 your trying to give away?? does it have a motor and trans? how bout interior is it black?? i would love to get some black interior panals

well i bought off a guy with a repair shop. the owner
didnt want it, he sold it to the mechanic for 300
i saw it, and asked about it. he told me that it
had a 350 in it. and he was asking 250 for it.
he started it it started good and sounded good.
and yes it sounded like a 350. got it home and parked it, i was going to fix this car up and give it
to my little brother when he got his license. we started looking under the car. and all behind the
passenger side door had been caved in. but the
out side was slick. not a wave, i bet it had 3 or 4
Gallon buckets of bondo in it. the car was needing a new back bumper i went to take it off, there was
no seam in the passenger side rear bumper. it was
bondo'ed togethermy brother took a sledge hammer
and hit it one good time and that part of the car
fell off so i scrapped that project and keept the motor and transmission. we took the motor appart
to find that it was only a 305, three of the pistons
crumbled when we took them out. i cyclinder was scratched, the man at pro performance, a local
need for speed shop, bored it 40 over and it still
didnt clean up all the scratches, all the others cleaned up on 30. so he put a sleeve in it, and i
ordered silv-olite hyperutectic pistons for it.
that was about 400 dallars. and redone the heads
for about 235 dallars. i havnt got it back together yet. but im working on it. you know that timing chain issue. thats what was wrong with the
engine in my trans am. i put a double roller in it
it seems it has a lot more power now thats fixed
and the timing is right. i got my heads back for
my rs they have had some port polishing done
to them and had new valves and valve seals put
in it. i hope to get them on tomarrow and see how
she runs. it would puff smoke when i would start it.
as for the ls6 intake on the ss. i dont know if i have time right now. im thinking about selling the trans am. and i got the 10 spoke ss rims from that wrecked ss on my ss now they look a lot better than the silver 5 star design ss wheels. my 01 back
bumper and spoiler's going to cost 400 to be repainted, im going to check someplace else to see
if it can be done cheaper. ive had a lot in savings
but its almost gone.

yea you cant tell them apart until you pull the haeds, sounds like your ta is pretty nice, yea good paint is expensive, my friend jus got his roll pan painted, 100 bucks and it dont even match lol

buddy that old car pretty much looked like
a weathered beatten down old car that was
about to meet its demise. i had 1 hour to
return to the junkyard with 250.00 to buy it
cause it was to be crushed. my mom laughed
when i got it home and said that it was like
the movie christine. it was my first car when i got
my drivers license. all i had to do was drop in a
battery and as soon as i turned the key she fired
right up. the sad thing was it only had 63,000
miles on it. and it was left setting there to rot
it has a clear title to. its a 87 gta its jet black,
blacked in windows tail light covers, its got
glass packs on it, and with the 383 stroker thats
now in it when i start it up it rattles stuff in the
house its so loud. you have to wear earplugs to
ride down the road in it.

glass packs sound like shit asshole!
but then again so does ridgerunners shitcan!

better watch little man, you'll get banned again.

my shitcan isnt running smartass, and i did have glasspacks on it and it sounded good, so BITE ME!!
