Fresh out of the body shop with a new cowl hood after hood flew up while driving and caused a great deal of damage. "son of a gun" gray from late model F body used with black stripes and new torque thrust...the ones I wanted weren't available, so I decided the classic torque thrust would work.

I've been doing body work on my camaro for a few months now, and it's been more like surgery, both rear quarters had to be replaced, parts of the front fenders, floor pans, all of it. After duraglass and Bondo sanding i've realized the car isn't going to be perfect. The car was originally black...
