    Mike and I were estimating last night...It'll be about 2 years and $7,000 to do it right. lol. We're calling his dad (remember the pink hair guy?) and asking him if he wants to restore it for us. He's retired and bored as heck.

    Here are a few pictures. It looks like a mess, but David has actually done all the dirty work. The engine and transmission just came back rebuilt. We have all the new parts, etc... We just have to put it back together and take care of the cosmetic stuff. We only paid $1500, and we were looking online last night, we can sell all that we have without doing anything for around $5000. So it's good to know we aren't over our head.

    Awesome! I really like the color orange on a 69 Camaro.

    I am in completely LOVE with my neighbors 69 Camaro, I LOVE the paint job! When you look at it from different angles in changes colors from a dark purple, dark blue, metalic green, to a teal-ish blue. Drop dead beauty-ful! *DROOL*

    Be sure to post pictures after the car gets painted. Hehehe, the kitty is a really good touch to the car!

    You lucky woman! I would love to have one of those. Don't know about the orange, though. I would probably do bright metallic red. Those old cars sure are classic.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.
