looks good Will.sure getting alot closer:thumbsup:

Nice paint.
She's looking good Will!

It looks great. Even better in person

Like many things, the longer you wait the more doubt you have. I am conflicted on wheels. I'm going to post up some options I'm looking at right now and let me know what you think. All are Forgeline, and all will be titanium w/ brushed lips. 18x9.5 in the front and 19x12 in the rear. The options with some details are below. I will try to find wheels that are as close to the finish and the expected offset as possible.

Forgeline GA3:
I like these, they're VERY popular which is part of the downside. I know of 3 first gen camaros in Houston that will be using this wheel. Two are being built where my car currently resides (GAP, 68 and 69 camaro) and the third is Black with HTM finished GA3's. Another downside is they sorta remind me of FR500s from SN95 glory days.

Forgeline CF3C:
This is the same wheel that Gray (BigBronco) has on his Z06. I took them and put them next to my car and they looked good. I'm a sucker for 5 spoke wheels. Recently forgeline put up a CF3C in titanium with a black lip that they put on a C10 and it sparked my interest again. Downside is they're a little on the plain side and maybe a little to "delicate" for the 69 camaro (spokes on the thin side). Concave wheel will reduce the lip and the concave is not available in a stepped lip for 18" wheels, so they would have straight lip. One benefit is no one is really running this on a first gen. Definitely not one with any ability to have offset.

Forgeline GZ3:
There is a 69 camaro with these north of Houston. Really growing on me, and different. Pictured below are silver w/ polished, these will all be titanium/brushed. Stepped lip on this and high offset really looks good. Downside to me is I'm MORE a fan of 5 spoke. That being said this rim does get my attention. There are several first gen camaros with these wheels. Believe it or not, more than GA3's i think! Just not as many in Houston!

Feel free to throw up options. Been looking at this a LOT today and this is about all I can come up with. I want to like the CF3C the most. GA3's and GZ3's both look good. GZ3 has more on first gens probably (going by forgeline's website), I KNOW of more first gens with GA3's on them in Houston.

I'm partial to the GA3s. There's a reason they're popular :trophy-1302:

Yea I know and in that popularity is my only real issue with them. They're "common" in Houston on first gens.

Not saying I wont go with them. Why I'm asking opinions on the wheels. They're all excellent choices in my opinion. Just want to see what others think :)

I like the look of the GA3's as well. Not to say that the others aren't good looking. It's just that the GA3's catch my interest most.

Few updates on this:

I've been offshore and one bad thing about that is TONS of time to research parts and :G-Dub:

So far I've picked up:
LS2 block

Stock pullout with stock bore (4.000") and stock main caps
Contacted machine shop I trust for machine work for stroker rotating assembly

LS3 Heads

50 mile pull offs from a 2014 1LE Camaro.
Will remain stock w/ upgraded springs for cam

402" rotating assembly

Compstar 4340 4.000" stroke crank
Compstar H-beam 6.125" rods w/ ARP hardware
Stock LS3 intake pulloff from 2010 Camaro

Items to be purchased soon:
Pistons

Looking at Weisco 4.005" -20cc reverse dome. (Should yield 9.5:1 compression)
ARP main studs and head studs
Throttle body
Stainless Works Turbo headers
Vintage Air Front Runner drive aseembly
GT35R turbos w/ Tial V-band stainless housing (0.82 A/R)
Ron Davis Radiator

Currently checking options on fuel system to see what will be best. I've been in contact previously with CarlC who is excellent source of knowledge on this and seen Josh Kalis' Camaro making similar power (slightly more actually) than I'm looking at making with mine and his Dual CTS-V pump arrangement. Trying to see if that's the way I want to go, or if I can use the single CTS-V flange and use a drop in tank setup that holds 2-3 Walbro pumps 255, 340, 400, etc).

As you can probably guess, I've put off the wheel search for now and focusing on trying to pay for things that will be time consuming aspect of the project as the wheels will take 4-6 weeks to build, and about an afternoon to mount/balance and install. I can do that later!

Solid plan going. No bad choice with Forgeline wheels

Sounds like a game plan Will.
Keep us posted.
