Ya well there is a lot of things different in this kit that are for different years,like the front suspension i have to change as the real one is strut and the kit are a arms,so no offence but hey,one has to expect some differences correct.

george 53 Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Jeff I'm REALLY happy your getting to build it.It sat in my hobby room so long that I was afraid the dust on the boxtop would cave it in! Ya know I never looked at it, but your right the Camaro's of that style WERE Mac Pherson struts! I changed the struts on my 82 Z and they weren't too hard to do. Looks like it might be kinda tricky to do on the kit though. Hope your enjoying it, as THATS what it was meant to do. Not sit in a closet in my basement!
getrdun Posted March 29, 2009 Author Posted March 29, 2009 Well guys,sorry if there a little blurry,they were takin with my phone.so here is my progress so far.struts brakes/dustcover and engine.
