A few progress pics from today. Me and the wife tackled gutting the interior so i can inventory what i dont have so i can start ordering stuff to complete the interior. The dash has to come out to replace the HVAC box that was cut up from the outside as we want the AC to function again. Once i have everything i need i will reassemble the interior and that will be 100% done.

Before the dash goes back in we are going to gut the engine bay, prep it and repaint it body color before the HVAC box goes in. This car will like brand new when its finished.

Don't be modest dude...probably better than brand new.

Though for the engine, I'd probably make it look bone-stock, but go ahead and do a stroker or something.

Just because I don't know the story behind it, why is the wife pregnant?

Seriously though, why do this much work on a Camaro? Was it your race car you're turning back to stock for a DD or something?

Thanks John. Rare color car and its actually in pretty nice shape is why i decided to restore it. 80% of the interior is there and finding a driveline is easy.
