Will we be seeing a "Charlie endorsed" test run down the driveway or something similar?

While Charlie may have some good weather, we have -15 weather up here and snow. That's part of my driveway on the right, and those old slicks wouldn't get far in this stuff.

Finished up a few things on the bottom side today. New emergency brake cable is installed and connected at the pedal, squared away all the shifter linkages and aligned everything, installed a new trans mount, cleaned up this D/S loop and reinstalled it, and installed the driveshaft. Next up is the wiring, the ignition system and all of the peripherals. Hoping to fire it up Tuesday as the weather is supposed to get better and this deep freeze might actually break. Found my Comp 692 Turbo mufflers today and will try and get those on next week as well.





Start up weather for Tuesday and Wednesday by the looks of things. May have time to do exhaust!

I'm confused as to why you think you need exhaust?

My mom is 74 years old and she loves the way my Camaro sounds with the headers open. She doesn't like it when I put the mufflers on.

As always................real nice work Graeme. I think you and Sam (Mockingbird) should open up a Day-2 Shop together. You could both quit your jobs! Attention to detail and work quality is unsurpassed with you two guys.
