I was sleeping there for a minute (I'm old and prone to nodding off 😁) and I happened to have my headphones in and then you fired her off. I immediately jumped knocked over my coffee and nearly pissed myself! Now my ears are bleeding I'm deaf and still grinning like hell. She sounds pretty good!👍

You are the man, taking two left for dead, stripped down, disassembled and rotted out shells and turned them both into solid rust free running and driving project cars! I love what you do man.

Mid 60's GM cars that had an amp meter (vs voltmeter) had a #10 wire that ran thru the bulkhead connector going the the amp meter. in the dash. That connection often got over heated (fire worst case) with melted wires. That wire also fed the fuse panel and it was protected by a curicuit breaker mounted on the firewall above the distributor. I have converted my cars to a voltmeter so that I didn't have that fire hazard under the dash. Food for thought for future 60's projects. (77 year old hot rodder!)

I worked for Hughes Aircraft from 79 to 89 as a quality engineering group head and one area I was responsible for was the wire harness assembly area. We used harness boards where all the wires were laid out. It’s a great way to keep track of which wire goes where.

The stock ign coil feed was below 12 v with a by pass from the starter. The HEI needs 12v .When you were poking wires the one below 12 might have been the coil wire and it would be around 9 v for point ign system .

Nay sayers have likely not even turned a wrench. I used to, as a young teenager, build a flip cars out of my garage. Mostly newly junked cars that were complete but non running. I had a neighbor that was a drag racer and another that was a body shop Mgr. and a trans shop 2 blocks away (most of the vehicles were auto TH350's or 400's). My Mother was the biggest nayser, until the 4th or 5th car, that I gave her since she had warped the alu head on the Vega she had, so many times it was junk. In fact, that car also had a rebuilt in it that my brother and I installed, since she had done the same to the last engine. So, I found a Mercury Monarch with a 250 6cyl and a towing pkg. (big brakes, big rad). She still blew head gaskets because she would sit in bumper to bumper traffic with the AC full blast! I put a massive 4 core rad in and still had that head milled twice a summer for a couple years!! I'm pretty sure that the compression was close to 11:1 when I got her a late 80's Caddy that was built to abuse with AC!! LOL. Anywho, I had some goofy friends that would come over and say stuff like, 'Why you working on this POS?" or"that's never gonna run". Funny thing, they were also the same people that asked for help, when their POS didn't run!! ;) Keep doing what you're doing, it makes me smile every time and it makes me glad I am no longer bending over hoods! LOL

Congratulations D&D. Another classic hotrod saved. You got it running on parts you had available. Not really junk parts that some are calling them. Using what you've got is what built the whole damn hot rodding culture. You mentioned some valve train noise on the left side. May be some header contact noise that might go away once you get the trans cross member bolted up. Love DD videos!

I haven't figured out how you manage to work with parts and tools laying all over the fenders, cowl, core support, roof, etc. If I tried that, all that stuff would all wind up in the floor, or worse yet, down in the engine bay within minutes. I use trays to put stuff in.

Happy Camaro day! So glad this one is falling into place with mostly what you have already and with spares to pass on with the offer. I'll bet 90% of your detractors have never worked on a hot rod, never mind rescuing a pile of rust from a field as the starting point. The Camaros are well worth fine tuning at this point for the future owners and sinking more money into them would just become diminishing returns for projects you want to sell.
