Hello my old friend! My 2000 SS Camaro returns home. Long read

Awesome Justin.

Interesting what you miss on here if you’re not here at the right time . . .

I have been intermittently following this on FB & enjoying the story. There’s a couple of cars I would enjoy to have backing my garage thinking back & possibly a few to many bikes I wouldn’t say no too either.

I absolutely love the tail light transformation! Wow! So much better now after stripping & polishing & that paintwork! Damn! Superb!

Awesome seeing your young man getting involved too, we can all see what it means to him.
Back long before I knew Detailing was even a thing, I used to thoroughly enjoy lending my Dad a hand in the garage “detailing” one of his cars or bikes . . . & of course now looking back, best of all was simply hangout with Dad.

Cool story Justin my friend, excellent restoration & a super cool story. Thank you for sharing with us!

Thanks brother. Yeah I put in some time after hours to get this done. Once the few pieces I need painted are done then all will be good.

Great story!

Too bad the guy that bought it couldn't also taken care of it cosmetically.

Thanks for sharing.
