2 Attachment(s)
Well, wanted to start an build journal early and update along the way. Enjoy!
Background: Grew up in northern california, had the opportunity to grow up with a 1970 chevelle ss, which I first learned to drive a 4 speed on. Dad and I took out the 396 and had Badass Racing build a monster 454. I currently attend Arizona State University, and this past January my parents decided to move to Austin, Texas. Since high school always wanted to do a ground up classic with my dad but he insisted on modern technology and performance. Test drove the ZL1 a few days after helping move in Austin. Instantly knew that would be a project car both of us could enjoy. Picked up in February and couldn't be happier. 2014 Crystal Red Tintcoat Camaro ZL1 I head back to Texas this saturday and the mods will begin!!

Hydro Dipping

Taking some pieces to get hydrodipped. Also taking the bow ties front and back decided the vinyl didn't look as good as it would with CRT carbon fiber.

Crystal Red Tintcoat is so badass :thumbsup:
When I was afraid my order was not going to be placed (long story) there was a CRT on the lot with the options I wanted. I was ready to go that way. |

Fuse Pull
Did the fuse pull last night #5 and #20. Will drive the car for comparison when the weather gets better.
Engine bay parts will be back from L&S hydrographics monday. Took a tour of the shop and it looked great, explained the process. Excited to see the end results. |
