Re: 72 k20
Thanks, it’s been a labor of love to say the least. The Camaro gets a lot of attention for sure. Now is the time to buy a decent 5th gen SS or ZL1. Lower mileage examples for the SS can be had for mid to high teens and decent ZL1s start mid 20’s if you look hard enough. It’s a ton of fun but I’ve been toying with letting my wife have the SS and buying either a ZL1 or a Z28 in the next year or so. Funny how once you get a consistent taste of speed you always crave more. I’ll have some updates and pictures to come in the next couple weeks with the truck. It’s getting ready to have the rockers final welded in and then the interior work is goin to begin. I got these door panels from Pete a few years ago and have cleaned them up in preparation for install. Very nice pieces for sure. They compliment the 99% perfect, 100% OE olive Cheyenne seat perfectly. I’ve got carpet and the door and window seals on the way, should be here next week. New fire wall insulation isngoing in as we speak. After the doors, carpet and insulation will be rebuilding the hvac boxes and ducting. Lots going on right now and I’ve got a few updates to add below. Been working on it pretty regularly for the last couple weeks.
I finally got the interior floor painted. I used some of the left over chassis saver from the frame. I’ve been very happy with this stuff and would recommend it to anyone looking for a good durable rust resistant paint. I also dropped the inner fenders back in. I had to modify the driver side as expected because of the hydraboost lines at the steering box. I also had to pull the top off my eddy 1406 because somehow or another the rubber came off the accelerator pump. I bought a rebuild kit only to find that the rubber had just come off. No biggie I’ll save the kit for another time.
