    Dang Al… you don’t waste time! Can’t believe how much ‘major’ bodywork you got done on day 1. All the intimidating stuff! Impressive and motivational.
    The copo dog dish look is one of my favorite looks… especially on that black Nova you did, but I’m thinking chrome Cragar SS staggered set would look amazing against that green. I’ve seen it before… it works! For what it’s worth. Great content and personality as usual. -Ron

    Take some 1/2” round stock and then 3/8” threaded rod and make a T by welding the threaded to the unthreaded then get a female ended threaded eye bolt. Drill a hole in that rear left section by the taillights. You can pull with a chain fall hooked to your truck. I’ve been making this rig in different sizes and shapes for years works great for pulling dents you plug weld the holes when your done!

    Hey Al great job on the quarter panel. Nothing says first Gen Camaro like rally rims. But I guess if you wanted to save a little cash the dog dish hubcaps would do the trick.
