Default 70 2nd Gen Build

Ive been looking for a clean 2nd get Camaro for a long time and finally found one to start building into my dream car. Its a 1970 1 owner out of GA with 93,000 miles on it. The car had a repaint 15 years ago after the pass quarter was damaged. Other than that the car is bone stock and untouched. Almost made me leery of a complete tear down. I don't plan on anything that hasn't been done 100 times already.

The day I pulled it in the shop. Then 2 days later, then by the end of the week. I have a few more pics ill start adding then continue thru the build process.

Started some of the metal work. No plans to do anything too drastic. Just want a real nice well done car. Ive got the DSE front subframe, rear quad link and 9'' housing ordered.

Looks like you found a great car to start with! Nice shop, too! Whereabouts do you hail from?

awesome to see another 2nd gen getting some love. I need to get out and finish the suspension under mine but I've so focused on my old Buick that the Camaro has been ignored. Time is not my friend!!

Cool project.
I used to drive by Taylor to Liberty Hill every other weekend to pick up my daughter for the weekend. I thought I remembered your C10 from the 67-72 chevy truck forum, cool truck.

Nice starting point and love what you have planned. I'm voting in favor of putting a vinyl top back on it!...that'd totally make it a standout
