Sorry buddy but my engine has puked all over that garage, parts and grease everywhere! Looks like you will need to help me finish that first. Besides if you would have asked I did work at a body shop for some time.

Seriously?? and you never brought it up the 10 million times i bitched at him for not working on the car when we all worked together.. Now go clean your shit up !

What? I always enjoyed watching you yell at him, made the work day go by faster.

cannaert · July 26th, 2012, 10:37 PM

If you were closer I would come help you guys out.

IF you guys can find a frame/body dimension sheet it will help out a ton on getting the new panels lined up to factory specs.

Why are you finishing your friends car?
Unless it is now your car.

cause im a good friend

1. scrap Camaro
2. return NPD metal
3. buy cheapest plane ticket to southwest US destination
4. buy shell/roller/whole car & ship back to MI
5. media blast

Steps 6 and beyond you're far ahead of the game.

If you're that deep into the project and seeking autobody help, chances are slim the mulletmobile will ever see the light of day.

you should never start a vast project with half vast ideas.

smasheromalley · July 29th, 2012, 04:03 PM

Fuck sheet metal. Tube it

Friends don't let friends drive junk.

My priorities are mixed up? wow....

The car will get done, when I decide to get it done. I have no rush, but everyone else does.

This.

If you have gotten that far into a project, and don't know how to finish it yourself, then you have already gone over your head. It is not worth fixing at this point. A clean southern car can be had for less then what it would take to bring this one back together.

That is, unless this particular car has some sort of sentimental value.

pyrowaves · August 1st, 2012, 07:14 AM

Again....not to far over my head... maybe Mclovins, but its not his car!

Its my car, in my garage. and I am capable of putting it back together.

Since taking it apart we bought a farm and lots of animals and switch jobs that require my attention more.

nevermind. I'm just going to scrap the hole thing and buy a Prius or something....
