The rear axle is all back together and only getting the springs installed remains. I had hoped to get that done yesterday, but it turns out DR Camaro sent the wrong lower spring pads. I'm really happy with how it looks, and look forward to having it finished and checked off the list..
The accessory belts are also now installed. The AC belt is an NOS GM. For the alternator and PS I ended up buying Gates belts that look like the originals. I used a 3M stripe remover to get the Gates labeling off the belts. Going back to the separate thread here on correct belt sizes and part numbers, et cetera, there is no way a 52.25" belt would work on the 80 amp alternator. I tried a 52" and there wasn't enough adjustment in the idler takeup to get it tight. I used a 51" and have maybe one-third of the idler adjustment range left.
Here's a few pics...
