dropping in my 455! i powder coated all the white stuff....note to everyone....i knew i shouldnt but couldnt resist coating my flexplate....bad idea! no amount of red locktite will keep your tq converter bolts tight....they come loose at least once a year if you beat on it!

found a pic of my 86 after sitting rotting in a field for like 5 years....right before i sold it...it was really nice when i had it in its prime...it was wicked cool as a 5 speed! hard to fit work boots to push the clutch to the floor but i think camaros were the same, i have pretty big feet and would hit the brake when pushing in clutch sometimes if i had boots on.

well went to put one mirror back together....yup...when i took first one apart i broke big mirror lock tabs off that one too. they just cracked, did not break off.....so i need to get both big mirrors with the back plastic clips on rear......really hope someone chimes in where i can get some....

i installed my cb forever ago and have been trying to find a home for an antenna that would not look stupid or be in the way if i put cap on or took it off....think this will work and look good....making one on other side for looks....its hard to tune duel antennas

haha thanks...really wish i did not brake off the mirror clips. going to cost me $180 more to fix if someone does not chime in with a fix or somewhere to get then....

I like the execution of the antennas, only worry I would have it the added weight/vibration etc may transmit to the mirrors more? I have mine fender mounted on both trucks.

yeah i was worried about that. i used thicker steel for base, feels pretty stout now.....ill update you guys if i ever find mirror glass and get to install these and test them!

I may ask for more detailed pics. Hell I might see if I can't make a set of stock mirrors work this way. Keep my tonneau cover and still have CB whips!
