...no emissions testing for vehicles over 25 years old in clark county!
Anywho, unfortunatly it's not 3rdgen related, but I thought I'd post up on my progress anyways-
Just got my '81 back together from painting, even though it is covered in a light layer of dust, I took some pics and I think it turned out pretty well:
I still have some more cleaning/polishing to do on some parts, but overall it has come a long way since I started on this thing last summer.

never dug the nose on the 78-81 Camaros, but it definately has some luster.
Did you paint it recently? _________________

Short attention span, or just awe struck by the beauty of the car? |

Haha, yep. I sure did.
I know that the late 2nd gens are considered to be the red-headed step children of the f-body world. That's cool with me though, everyone has their own taste, I can appreciate the over the top late 70s disco era styling for what it is. I like this one for the simplicity of design and loads of character it has- which is something that I really hated about the soul less 4thgens I had.
Thanks for all the compliments so far! |

I have a set of factory t-tops from a 79 Z-28 sitting in my garage taking up space, can you use them? |
