My 69 Camaro Build

My car is finally starting to see some progress so I guess its time to start a build thread.

I bought this car earlier in the year (2013) with small intentions just to update the steering, suspension, brakes, and a few other things and just enjoy it. I should have known better cause I am not capable of ever doing that weather its with a daily driver or a project.

Here is the car as it looked when I got it

Once I started to tear it apart and order parts it spiraled out of control. I pulled the whole car apart down to a shell. Removed the interior, front clip and sheet metal, engine/tranny/rearend, all wiring and lights removed etc etc.

With the help of some good people, Darren@ridetech, Jeremy at Miranda Built, the folks at Wilwood, COR Wheels, and Michelin Tires, I ended up with a healthy parts list to get me thru the next few months.

I ended up with the following.

Ride Tech Stage 2 Suspension Package with Muscle Bar and Tru-Turn Steering
Wilwood 14" 6 Piston Fronts and 14" 4 Piston Rears all with upgraded Nickel Calipers
COR Cypher 3 Piece Wheels 20x12 in the rear and 19x9 in the Front
Michelin Pilot Spots 325/25/20 Rear and 265/30/19 Front
DSE Mini Tubs
QuickPerformance 9" Narrowed with Billet ends, new center section etc
