Good evening Guys!
I have just bought a 1988 Camaro RS.
I live in Mallorca (ex pat) So looking forward to lots of top down time.
Having it dropped of on Saturday morning, not under its own power as it looks like the fuel pump has given up?? So will be making a fuel pump access hatch this weekend.
Regards to you all Len.

Bummer when the electric fuel pump needs servicing, I´m still mechanical.
I´ve thought about doing the access hatch though for when the fuel pickup needs changing.
GM just never thought they´d go wrong..... :lolno:

Hi again :thumbup:
Have you seen this style before?
Is it factory color's to have different lower skirt?
I think it would look better as all red.

Look at this Camaro color scheme search.......

There are several with spoiler and rocker panels painted differently to the body.
