Even through a storm we get the job done.

We started to detail a Chevelle and storms rolled in quickly so we closed the garage door and waited it out. The garage shook and this is what happened next.

After the storm passed we looked at the damage.

There is a Chevy Suburban under there.

We went back to detailing since we couldnt leave due to the streets all being closed.

Now that's dedication. Great looking job on the Chevelle.

Cleaning up after a storm like that is the pits.

Thanks everyone. The Chevelle was sitting right next to the truck when I did my pre-detail inspection. As soon as the skies turned we pulled it in the garage and shut the doors. There was more than just the Chevelle in the garage too. The owner has muscle cars on lifts in the garage. Its a GM garage thats for sure.

Talk about dedication......you guys were very wise to move inside. So what other cars does he have?

69 Camaro 302, 70 GTO, 70 Camaro with a 427ci. All are very very nice.

I didn't know the Camaro had a 302. I thought they only made 305's or 307's.

302
Production:1967–1969
Displacement:302 cu in (4.9 L)
Power:290 hp (216 kW)
Bore and Stroke:4.000 × 3.00 in (101.6 × 76.2 mm)


Dave has the 302 in his Camaro. It's a high-revving SOB!

[ShowCar]

They were built to run Trans Am and the engine cube limit was 302 I believe.

yep ...302 CID ...here's a pic I took of the four major brads' 302s at the 1971 TransAm at Watkins Glen :banana: ...looks like Parnelli Jones' (actually I think George Follmer was driving the #15 BOSS 302 that day), Mark Donahue's #6 AMC Javelin, Camaro and Charger -- fun stuff!!
