It’s happening! It’s really happening!

Ooh, that’s right, people (person) of Internetville, it’s really happening. The Camaro is turning from a pile of parts into an actual car. I offer up the below evidence:

Out for a leisurely Saturday drive…

 

Brakes are mostly functional, the transmission seems to have abandoned the worst of it’s fluid barfing, and we even got the power steering operational again. Power brakes, power steering, what a world!

Got the Drivers side window glass and electric lift installed, as well, which means there’s only one remaining window to deal with! Hooray! We tested the power top pump and cylinders, and of course one cylinder leaks. So… yeah. New ones.

OH HEY! The heater core leaks. Are you surprised? You shouldn’t be, because it’s something that could leak, and it’s something we hadn’t yet replaced. Which means we had to replace it eventually, right?

Oh, is this normal?

Most Camaros burst into flames at some point.

Sure, that’s part of the charm.
