Now that the Camaro's was covered in BASF Black Epoxy Primer, it was time to
make the car a roller and put the body panels back on. We start by
installing the sub frame and making sure it is square. Once the car can
roll, we started putting on doors, fenders, hood, etc. With a little
persuasion, the gaps were all lined up and the car is ready for body
work.
