For local cruises and running about, they go pretty much anyway they want, chasing more white lines than Amy Winehouse!!

These for long runs. Which do you prefer?

Do you have the book that your car is on the cover and featured inside?
The complete customiser by Steve Myatt?

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I prefer the General Grabbers on it as that's how I remember seeing the car when it first came out. Aaaaargh!!!! I said I liked Grabbers, General Scrubbers, gotta wash my mouth out, gotta wash my mouth out!!! :lol: :lol:

cheers..Nige

Fantastic car

Drum brakes and a 12 bolt and a blower- wow!

agree with everything you say about family reactions

I have had my two Camaros since 1988

And a wife 1999- 2005

No longer have I got the wife................

But I still have the Camaros!

Wow thats impressive, wish I still had the cars I had in the eighties.

Had another hour or so in the garage tonight, and get this.........................
ive found the switch that works the Red Axle Light, fuse had gone.

Before you all say ''Oh No'' yes it's staying and yes it will be lit on the cruise nights!
Might even put a couple of orange ones behind the grille, it used to have them too. Itll come back, everyone will be doin it!! well maybe not!!

Russ.
