Re: PIttsburgh
I am not sure if the louvers fit or not, they have recess in same shape as your luuvers - they were never a functional hood... Just looks..
Keeps the factory look, lighter than stock steel.. Figured if you wanted to ruin a hood you may wanna try that one.. I really just want it out of my garage. It should not loose any over your hood, mY Camaro had factory v6 hood when I switched to that.. The air cleaner seemed to hit the same on both and I think moreso on the V6 hood.. T-5 days till 12bolt

Re: PIttsburgh
So I normally drive to school right?? well today I decided to take the bus. Bad move:
I got some pretty bad pains and aches. We'll see what happens, but at least I am in one piece.

Ouch! I'm guessing they didn't see the big yellow thing stopped in front of them.

Re: PIttsburgh
so is anybody in for that meet at sonic? seems like most of the ppl on ls1tech are complete douche bags that are going. So all i have is my crew and 1 more dude from ls1tech that agrees that they're all douche bags. I need some third genners!

Re: PIttsburgh
Still waiting on things to get done. Wont be long once i get the motor/trans/fuel system But those are some important items without them i'm stuck sitting here wishing i was driving
Good news is the T56 is sold and I used that money to buy my fuel system.Dual intake pumps and feed lines to rails. Good deal there, just gonna be around 2 weeks or so till all that comes in and I go to pick it up

Re: PIttsburgh
Got a door today!! Time to move forward!!!
If you guys need parts, make sure to try this Feezle Auto Wreckers. I counted 37 3rd and 4th gen F-bodies, about 12 2nd gens and 1 first gen, along with 3 entire rows of JUST mustangs, and any passenger car you can think of. He is just over the Ohio boarder. His prices are not dirt cheap, but they are in line, and he they have everything inventoried on his computer (he told me a car # that had the best door in the yard, low and behold, it had the best door in the yard. Had a similar experience with the window regulator I needed for our mustang).
im hoping to have it on the road by July 1st. That's my current goal.
edit: i also may have found a T56 I can sit on for awhile.

Re: PIttsburgh
Well they werent high enough to shoo us away
The car we got the door off had to be a fresh corpse. It was really funny. I was sitting inside taking the inner panel off to get at the hinge bolts, and my dad tells me to look at the headliner. The dome light was on... Put the key in it and the dang thing has juice lol. I was half tempted to see if it started, since you could tell the car was drove into its current resting spot

To the best of my knowledge it was the former site of the Starlite drive-in. As drive-ins go there were of course alot of cars/car cruises there. Just kind of carrying on a tradition. At least thats what i was told. Not being from the area or old enough to remember i'll take their word for it.

Re: PIttsburgh
Could anyone give me a location on that Feezles wrecking yard? I need interior stuff bad! Oh, also my buddy who owns a body shop is looking to buy a roller t top camaro. He just needs the back half and roof. Someone brought in a 55k original 5.7 t top that got hit pretty hard in the rear. Car is super clean so he's trying to save it. Thanks Brothers!!
