    Almost ready to start !





    Then the first startup.


    So, I received the air cleaner



    Then waiting for my friend to finish the engine setup I began to rebuild the front and the rear brakes.





    Then we found the 780CFM carburator was just too much for the engine setup, so I bought a 650CFM dual pomper.


    Then I received my hood





    I was pissed off about the timing chain spitting oil everywhere, so we tow the car to my friend garage


    To the garage


    Unfinished engine bay



    Then the garage where I send the car blew the engine...... too much gaz on oil and they beat the shit out of it... and they don't want to repair the engine... god.




    Sooooo I my son born, didn,t have the time and money to rebuild the bloc... soo, 200$ engine let's go to roll that summer.


    I was surprised than the engine become orange after washed it up during 4 hours lol


    After quick paint.


    And new 200$ engine on the hole lol




    Quick shot with my friend




    Then I bought a Nissan Altima 2006






    New aluminium rad with homemade support





    New flashers






    Almost clean interior



    I tried sticker on my wheels, not bad, god those wheels are fugly.




    Here in Québec we have a holiday that called St-Jean-Baptiste, in few words it's just a day to drink beer all day long lol... so the Camaro pay the prise of my drunk.




    friend at home



    To see me paint the goddamn hood !
