Thanks Frank!

The car is back in Mike's shop. They bench tested the blower motor, but after everything was put back together it was making a lot of noise and no air pressure. It sucks that the passenger side front fender has to come off to replace the blower motor.

The fender doesn't have to come off. I've replaced them before with just taking off the front tire and lowering out the inner fenderwell. Much easier than the fender and less chance of scratching stuff up too!

Thanks!!! I did a bunch of searches on camaros.net and saw where people loosen the inner fender well and then put a 2 x 4 between the inner and outer fenders and pry down the inner fender. Then other people posted that you should do it the right way and take the outer fender off.

If lowering the inner fender works, that's DEFINITELY the way to go. Thanks again!

You'll have to let me know the details of your photo shoot. I wouldn't mind having a few professional pics taken of my car once it's done.

I'm kinda jaded after all these years of seeing/building cars and it takes a lot for me to take notice.
That being said those pics actually make me say wow, that is a bad ass car

No problem. I wanted to get a few decent pics while everything is looking good. I've already started picking up some tiny nicks in the paint from all the driving I've been doing with it.
