The Z28 shall go to the ball

T Cut & two coats of polish to the bonnet :



That's got some of the shine back




Time to get the old Gal airborne :



The stainless steel exhaust discolours



Lot's of Autosol later :



Gearbox isn't too bad



Fresh coat of high temperature paint on the Y pipe :



Still plenty to do before Sunday

Nope just red paint, hence the reason why minor repairs are easy to do, bright red also hides scratches & chips really well

Although you could polish through the paint to the primer underneath

All three of my current vehicles are bright red

the inside of the damper looks a bit scruffy

Kudos for the work man!

Wish I had a covered garage to put the Camaro in, about a day after washing it, it has dust and pollen and general mankness on it...

Yes it's mainly just road dust, she ain't no trailer queen

I hose the chassis down which gets rid of most of the dust/crap, but around the engine bay is a clean damp cloth job

Save ya tin of polish Mr FBody - family takes precedent this Sunday...

Fingers crossed the weather stays good everyone - enjoy!

I'm not sure whether that should read Autosol or Analsol. A work of art still Martina, respect #

I feel embarrased that mines the same age - mind you, mine would tear the arsehole out of yours in a drag race
