Bob's Camaro

Post by Basement Paul »

Here's a bunch of pictures of Bob's '77 Camaro before and after the front end exchange. There is one picture of a bracket on the '70 front end showing that it originally was the same color as the '77 it went on. Kind of funny.

Looks like it won't be long before we see this Camaro at TRP.
It definitely looks better as a 1970 than a 1977. Love that shifter.

Just a reminder of where this hardware came from.
The trophy front-end came from Spring Carlisle 2006.

A pickup truck and station wagon full of booty,
but the early Camaro front-end won this years prize for
being the largest piece purchased by our group.

Were the front fenders from the 77 or did they need changed also?

The fenders were good. He had to fix the lower edge of the driver's side just to fill the small hole, the passengers side was good.

He's also got the engine compartment almost all detailed. More pictures to come.
