You'll want to talk to Grant(MeenZ28) on here. He's done it himself and the car looks 100x better now.

Yea, Grants definately the man to talk to. Also, hate to bring up another forum, but www.camarov6.com has a decent write up with some details on how to do the conversion. If I was you I'd find it and ask Grant to check out that write up and tell you what he thinks about it, but I'd definately take his word over that post, cause you can see he knows what he is talking about.

I feel special. Of course, i wouldnt start the way i did if you can help it. Putting the car into a concrete post is probably not the best thing to do. LOL

No, but it works if you are undecided if you should leave it the way it is or do the conversion..it kinda makes the decision for you!!

If you need someone to wreck your car for you let me know- I call dibs on crashing it-

I think i deserve it. The chance to crash something and NOT have to worry about fixing it would be a nice change.

It is fairly straight forward, The hardest part is making sure all the parts line up right. The gaps in the fenders and hood is something i'm still working with.
