Ok, The guy I bought this vehicle from now wishes to buy it back. He has offered me his 81 Z28 for 1000 dollars plus my 78. The 81 has a running 350 and is in better condition overall. So I am going to sell this back to him and buy his 81 from him. Pics of the 81 are on page 2.

This is my 78 Camaro.

I was given a Z28 Front sway bar which is much thicker and better then the stock one. But as I tried to take the sway bar off I snapped the end links, so I got some new much better end links. I decided I should go with poly urethane swaybar Bushings because my normal mounting brackets didn�t fit right so while I had the swaybar off I decided to clean it.

I pulled the front Rotors off and resurfaced them as well as cleaned the bearings.

I dropped the rear end and I have broken leaf springs.

The Window crank was broken so I found a replacement one at Napa, when I went to install it I decided to remove the whole door panel and clean it up.
