1968 Camaro 468, 5-speed, global west
 

Hey guys, I just picked up my first Pro Touring styled 68 Camaro. I'm not new to first gen Camaros by any means, but am very new to Pro Touring Styled cars. I will post of some pictures of what I am starting out with and I'll keep you guys updated. The build should move pretty quickly as I am not one to leave new parts sitting in my garage. Keep an eye out for the new kid on the block.
468 BBC with a 750 Carb. Ford 9" rear end with Global west tubular uppers and lowers. Nascar 4-wheels disk Big Brake kit. Ididit tilt column. Custom Welded Roll cage. 14 gallon Fuel cell. Stripped interior.

Plan is to remove the roll cage, add full interior, color change the exterior, Get the car to a better stance. Clean up the Engine bay, and clean the under carriage up. Well see if it stops there....haha

Well come to our crazy world :cheers:

Nice base to start with, just watch out how many project threads you look at, it will cost you LOTS of cash!! I can tell that from looking at my bank account! :willy:

Very cool beginning.... keep the roll cage for now.. you might want it later. :unibrow:

^^^^^^^^ What he said^^^^^^^^


Nice Camaro, It has additude:thumbsup:

Nice solid plan, will see how long you keep that first draft :lol:
I'm with Dave keep the cage for now!

I apprciate the input, but I already cut most of the cage out and am working on the grinding tomorrow. If I do decide to go with a roll cage, I am a bolt in guy, I am not into the perminent modifications as of yet. I know that will hurt me in the end ( When I go through 50 sets of wheels, and 10 different looks of interior, and my credit cars get maxed out) but I like to be able to change the look as easily as possible. When this dynomat gets here, I will get started on the interior and the project should move quickly. I have everything else for the interior.

What Modifications are needed to use an 05 GTO center console with otherwise stock interior?

Welcome... gotta good foundation there. Looking forward to seeing things evolve.

A lot of great guys here. I have learned a ton and the information has been invaluable.

Good luck!
