    This gen Camaro has a soft spot in my heart. I used to walk to Ford Jr High, in Brook Park in 1979 with my best friend. A Camaro like this, in maroon paint would pass by and she would wave at us. Never knew who she was. But the car is very memorable. Thanks for bringing Cleveland back to respect.❤

    Out of years of being a truck and as of later years a car mechanic I would strongly suggest you try nut Buster also sold in some areas as lefty loosey. It will blow your mind how fast and how well it works. I know WD-40 seems to be the go too but trust me, once you try nut Buster you’ll never look back.
    Note: it’s made/sold by Wynn’s here in Canada but also available in the States

    omg it must have been a shock to see it on your neighbour garage lol, i prefer the 3rd gen but i really, really love the front bumper on this one. it looks so aggressive, it's just perfect to look at it. amazing job as always and i don't know if i'm going to be correct but if you have a badge (or cheap jewerly) with just copper, with mold mixed with oxigen will create a green "stuff" on top (i know this since i put a cheap pendant in the shower and after leaving it outside it still have that same stuff on top). it was cute of you to gift the camaro, and good job to the owner for at least know how to storage a car.

    The 1977 Camaro was the last of the early second-generation models and marked the first time it outsold the Mustang. It offered engines from a fuel-efficient inline-six to a powerful 350-cubic-inch V8. The Z28 performance model returned with 185 horsepower, and while the car became a pop culture icon, it lacked a convertible option, which had been discontinued after 1969.

    I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the third gen Camaros, especially the 1985 to `1990 IROC Camaros. IMHO, those were the peak years for both the Camaro styling and performance. I like the hardtop coupes, but the T-top cars and the later convertibles are pretty special too. I wasn't into the base Camaros when I was in high school, but now I see them as great project cars for engine swaps, especially if they get the LS engines and manual transmissions that these cars deserved back when they were new.

    So the reason why the Camaro badge would turn green is because some of them were made out of plastic and some were made out of cheap metal and they would chrome on top of it when the weather would get hot and cold the chrome would not shrink or expand as fast as the material that they were using underneath the chrome which would cause the chrome to corrode instead of rust which is what's a green color is the oxidation basically
