New Guy from Chicago
 

Hey guys,

Finally starting my 65 GTO clone project. I'm planning to do a frame-off resto and will be adding a decent amount of suspension/braking equipment along with a new motor and manual 5 spd. If anyone has any tips, warnings or suggestions, I'm all ears.

Welcome aboard, that's a cool car. :thumbsup:

Where about in Chicago are you? My shop is located in Mundelein (Northern Suburbs) We build a complete performance chassis for the Chevelle/GTO. www.roadstershop.com Let me know if we can be of any help.

I will post some photos soon although there's not much to look at right now as the project is juuuust beginning

I'm on the NW side of Chicago, right next to Park Ridge

Dude, building up a 68 Camaro, just posted it up here a few weeks ago. Should be done in like a month to a month and a half. Im in Wicker Park, right off the Kennedy and North Avenue. Love to check out the ride when its done. Cant find too many guys (or girls) building PT/Street Machine cars in Chicago. Send me a PM when youre close to complete, or whenever. Id like to see it in the build stage too, WTF!!

Welcome show us some pics.:cool: :cool:

Are you from Chicago originally? I've been here my whole life and can say that the car guys are here just more spead out I guess. I will let you know when thing start coming together.
