Rich,
Thanks for the compliment.
Learn to do body work?........I think if you want something bad enough, you'll figure it out. My dad showed me some basics (common sense stuff), but I probably do a lot of things wrong because I'm self taught. The internet helps a lot too. Messing things up and doing it over and over again till it's right happens a lot to me.
I can't express how bad I wanted this car. Maybe it's weird, but I treat my three classic cars like they have feelings. I got tears in my eyes at certain points of the restore due to being so excited to have this vehicle. My wife thinks I'm weird.
We live in the same area so we should definitely hook up one day for lunch or something and talk Camaros

.
You got my email which goes to my blackberry and I got your number. I'll also email you my number.
