Default My first restoration! The car I wanted since high school...

I thought I would share on this site I frequent alot for so many good reasons, helping me with knowledge on my first gen camaros.

Here is my 70 cuda convert, 340 4 spd, 1 of 88 made. I always wanted one since dreaming I had one while I gazed out the window in high school. My friends that are paint reps for high end paints, did it for me, its not even cut and buffed yet!!!!!. These new water based paints are amazing. I only know how to paint laquer which shows my age

I can only paste the link and don't know how to make the pictures appear. Thought some would enjoy a great car with a great color (B5 blue is so close to the color on my 68 camaro actually).

this car was wearing 2 shades of silver paint in the barn finds I think 8-10 years ago at MCACN (car just came out of a barn in Nebraska). I drove it with its L60 Gillette white letter polyglass tires to the show and it actually snowed some when there. no heat. scary ride, had my man card in my wallet. Yes I live close enough but it likely was not wise to do. wiper worked marginally.
