Thread: Old '72 Camaro

i think if the car as a roller is in great shape on holes floor pan solid . buy a rusty roller for all the parts this car is lacking .this car has a sub frame so if the rockers are rusty truck pan id gone .then there a very chance the back spring pockets and back rails are going .so you end up with a good roof line. cars like this we tube out . i did a very nice 70 firebird many years ago great body shot it dynasty red i think code 72 ? PPG with DAU 75 clear thats the way i did them 25 years ago . but the guy did not have any thing but a body so i could not finsh the car no glass not one thing but a shell .he wanted me to fine all the parts and that was hard to do back 25 years ago. car sat out side for 20+ years with no glass in it. that thing was still shinny rusting to the ground

Thanks for the ideas of what to check - This is what I need. Like I mentioned it was in better shape than I thought and I am by no means wanting to do a Total restoration- I';m looking for a Street car that I will run to the strip now and again. A project to keep idle hands busy and keep me out of trouble!
