We got the license plate for the 68 Camaro finally too!!!
Finally got it tagged as a classic (had a few hoops to go through)
I can finally LEGALLY take it out for a good run this weekend

Morning all - today should be my last Monte-less day. Went to take my filler plate to my body guy and he's ready to paint today. He had to weld an edge in because my front driver fender was essentially gone...thank you rust.
She's in the booth now: If you look at the lower fender versus the bottom of the door you can really see the color difference. It sticks out like a sore thumb when it's out in the sun. Sub par repair work from the shop in PA that the previous owner used after their accident.

..Thanks `Mike for you update & we look forward to seeing updated pictures when it's finished...I've seen cars in in Florida from the Cleveland area & it's sad what happens to vehicles due to the use of salt...
It's also a problem in Florida for those living Ocean side with the salt mist from the Ocean
Good Luck & I hope it turns out the way you want it to be
Peace/Out from `Space

Tell me about it - I've had to have 3 out of 4 wheels wells gutted and repaired from rust. Some undercarriage parts are AWFUL - some of it I've been working on my self, the parts under the hood or under the car you don't see. But the rest I leave to my body guy.
My cousin is trying to start a little at home photography business now that she is a stay at home mom so she said she'd like to try to shoot my car when it's done, so I'll have some nice unveiling pictures.

Good Morning Everyone!
Happy "Monday?" LOL
It's nice to have a mid week break...except it felt like a Saturday ALL day yesterday...thinking of work the next day felt weird.
Hope you all had a good 4th of July holiday!
Hi Space, my 4th was great, thanks for asking! And I actually did take my Monte out! Was a joy to drive it, as usual!!! The weather out here has been AWESOME the last few weeks...yesterday it was 72 with a light breeze.

Morning all, had a lot of trouble sleeping last night, my stupid hives and swelling flared up bad.... So got maybe 2 hrs of sleep, spent most of the day in the pool at my sisters yesterday, felt really good!
Got the weekend to myself after today, not sure what I'm going to do, I have been trying to get some details but not working out so great, so we shall see!
