    Love the car. My wifes first car was a black 79 Camaro and we owned it for 17 years. Indiana winters started to get to the paint, so we sold it.

    Beautiful Chevy Camaro. Needs the carb adjusted with the hose that goes to the brake booster. Adjust the needles and the idle screw and she'll run right and get the best gas mileage. She's got a lot of potential. 😊

    Try using "hot shot fogger" to get rid of bugs. You can park a few cars in one enclosed area in the evening, set a few cans off, go home, and let the fogger do the work. You won't have to wait to "trap" the bugs.

    Makes me miss my 81 Z in the same color. The only change I'd make, after addressing the miss is put Crager wheels on it. Don't get me wrong, those wheels are nice, but they have been so overused in the muscle car world. But I quess you could say the same thing about the Crager too, lol. Just not as much as these currently. Went to a show once, and 10 cars right next to each other all had that exact same wheel. Just my preference. Aluminum heads are one of the best mods you can make, but then you have to mod everything else, or it doesn't reach its full potential. That things sounds Nasty! I haven't watched in a while. Who thought up the head cam? I love that. Its like being there. Lol

    Looks clean underneath until I saw the rear axle. There’s crud all built up around the seal. So a rear man seal leak for sure. On this one the interior might be original. If not, just a cheap fix. I saw the other one a 78 and it was listed 19k. I said no. This at 14k getting close to a buy for a project. No rust underneath. No where else so a very solid start to a build. This is the car I loved in hotwheels and Matchbox as a kid in the 80’s. So it’s checking those kid vibes.
    Looks like they painted this car outside. Some orange peal and imperfections. I saw some rust around the trunk lid. They painted over that. He mentioned the new trunk lid seal. So yea it was leaking all around that and rusted. Not a bad fix though.
