My three camaros 87irocz 91 RS & 91 Z28 project LIFE LONG!
Hey guys after saving up and buying parts i decided to make a thread about my car. Im wanting this page to use it as a memory for me since its my first car that i saved up since i was 16 and now im 18 and finally working on it. So here are some pics of it and i hope you guys like my plans for it.
My plans for this car is to paint it sebring silver after seen pics of it i feel in love with that color so im gonna paint in that color with an iroc hood and gloss black buckets i also got a hawks spoiler i bought off a member from here.

Re: My 91 RS project
Well this weekend i didnt get to do much since it rained on saturday
all i got to do was replace my passenger side window motor which was way harder than i thought and got to sand off all the cheap primer on my front bumper and side skirts. Hopefully next time i can get more work done i will post the pics later.

Re: My 91 RS & 91 Z28 projects
Yea well today the mechanic got it to run but by connecting the starter directly with the battery, and also found another way to get it resgistered cheaper so ima keep it and probably have both cars.

Re: My 91 RS project
It's still not working. How about you upload the pictures to an album and your profile and then copy and paste them onto the thread? That's what I do and it always works.
