Beast Mode '69 Camaro

I've read through a lot of really cool builds on this site and I have learned a lot from everyone on here. I figured I would start my own build thread. I'm calling this car "Beast Mode". I edited this from the original posting because a few guys said I was being a bit modest about the build. My intention is to build the best car my salary will allow me to build. The car will be built by my dad and I out of my dad's garage. Here is the car when we started. I bought it from a guy in Georgia in 2011, a decently solid starting point.

Wow, nice parts list there. You were modest in your very first post as if this was gonna be just a simple, low key, run of the mill type of build. After seeing the chassis and all of the carbon fiber, this car is gonna be one bad 69.

Here is the body being test fit on the chassis. We ended up cutting the floor and lowering the body over the chassis just a little bit in order to get the stance a little lower.

I picked up the doors from Auto Metal Direct and they seem to be pretty good quality.

Here is the car in rough mock up. The ride height is what it will be.
I ordered a grille from Yearone but haven't gotten it at this time...
