Camaro update...

[Musashi3000GT]

Matt, dont take this the wrong way buddy but why did you ever get rid of the Panda? I mean I'm working on an old car too and I know its frustrating to maintain, all the rust, the hard to find parts, all that crap but your panda was a thing of glory.
I'm guessing the hefty down you put on the Camaro was from selling the Z.
sucks you gotta get rid of it after so short a time and all this trouble.

best of luck to ya Red.

I was tired of driving an old car everyday... it was loud to drive, there isn't any sound insulation in those 240z's... well not much, paper thin really.

But, the exhaust got on my nerves after awhile... suspension creaks and chassis moans... sunroof leaked... no heater or defroster. I got tired of sitting there with a roll of papertowels trying to wipe my windows clear.

They'd clear up... usually by the time I got to wherever I was going.

It just got old. To be totally honest, and as I look back on it the only time I was happy in that car was when I was hauling ass. And that's not safe... cause the only time that all the little things that pissed me off made sense was when I was baiting and hooking the next unsuspecting victim.

I figured the Camaro, which I had always liked, would be a good step up. A good blend of sportyness and daily driving. Fact of the matter is, for me... it wasn't a good blend of interior design and my biological design. I always felt awkward in it... seating position and such.

I was planning on selling it before any of the repairs took place, a few people on here can attess to that. But, now... it's a sealed deal. Soon as I can... it's gone.

And I'll move onto something else.

I can attest to him wanting to get rid of the Z28 before it had rearend problems. He's never been comfortable in it. He's somewhat short, and most LS1's are designed for taller people.

[Sleepr awd]

almost public leaning post short...then again i'm 6ft tall and in the correct driving position i have to have a haircut to fit just right, don't ask what happens on bumps

Red, sound deadening is easy, good stuff is like $1/sqft or you can get the lighter (and almost as good) spray on, 5gal is like $200.
heater instalation is like $100 and it comes with a defroster/fogger and sun roof problem was probably and wasy seal fix.
chassis squeaks can be fixed wit ha little grease.
now look what happened.
its the Z's spirit comming back to haunt you, lol.

[Musashi3000GT]

I hope whatever you get treats you alot better though. The Panda was my inspiration to start on the Starion, well that and seeing you and TV rocking it oldschool.....how is "The saint of octane" btw?

[Igovert500]
