My Dads friend works at advanced auto and the box said it was red when it was really black, so he gave it to me... I can't wait.... Two more weeks and its new front suspension and whatever else i can find to spend cold hard cash on the camaro. _____________________________ 94 Camaro 3.4L Manual Transmission, CAI, Magnaflow Exhaust 91 3.1L RS manual, CAI, 3.42 Rear end gears, Catback (in reply to shnormo) Post #: 13

(probably not) just thought id check tho. _____________________________ 94 Camaro 3.4L Manual Transmission, CAI, Magnaflow Exhaust 91 3.1L RS manual, CAI, 3.42 Rear end gears, Catback (in reply to shnormo) Post #: 15

But if you're spraying them with minimal prep time, yes. And you do not have to re sand after paint thinner. _____________________________ - Norm http://www.cardomain.com/id/shnormo05 Rebuilding 79 Camaro (in reply to 94CamaroSFI) Post #: 16
