To start off, i just wanna say i know i haven't been very active since i've joined the site but i have been doing a lot of searching and reading and i've learned a ton from this site already! Now to get to the point of this thread, back when i first got my camaro last summer about a month after i bought it i lost one of my two part time jobs so i was barely scraping by with only one part time job so needless to say my plans to start working on my car were put on hold. A few months go by and im starting to think that i would either have to A.) Sell my dirtbike and gear and give up motocross and stop going to the local races with my friends to fund my camaro build or B.) Sell the camaro and keep my dirtbike and just wait til i find a better job and get another camaro later on down the road. Well i came really close to selling the bike but i just couldn't bring myself to do it, I thought to myself "i have way too much fun riding and going to races with my friends" and i felt that i would regret it almost immediately, so there sat the camaro out in the yard, nothing getting done on it i decided i would give myself til the end of the year and if things didn't change i would sell the car. A few weeks go by and finally in the last week of October i get a call back from one of the places i had put in an application and by October 31st i had myself a new full time job! Fast forward to now, I finally have been able to save some money for the car and I am getting ready to start working on it as soon as i get my dads shop cleaned out where i will be working on the car (the shop is a mess, looks like a hurricane rolled through there). I hope to get her on the road sometime before the end of summer but i do realize that might be a more of a dream than a reality haha. And i do plan on getting a build thread started when i do begin work on the car, i like to take pictures too much haha! But anyways I'm just excited to start turning some wrenches on the car and I'm sure i will have a bunch of questions for you guys soon haha! But anyways I felt like just sharing my story to my fellow ltxer's so there it is!!
