Yup..I'm new - 79 Camaro Project
 

Hello all, been here several times so I finally decided to join. Some very nice cars here, good info too. On to the car, it's a 79 Camaro, just a backyard, low-budget, father-son, ground up rebuild type thing. Anyway, here's the basic info and some pics:

Chassis:
Comp. Engineering SFC's, 12 point cage, solid motor mounts

Suspension:
Front: SPC rod end adjustable UCAs, reworked mount position, solid bushings in lowers, QA1 bolt in adjustable coilovers
Rear: Stock Car Products Truck arms, QA1 adjustable coilovers, custom fabricated panhard bar/mount

Drivetrain:
11.5:1 377, Renegade CNC ported heads, solid roller, lightweight crank, Mahle pistons and h-beam rods (can't remember the brand), Fidanza aluminum flywheel and SPEC clutch, TKO600 and 9" rear with nodular case, 4.11 spool for now.

Tires & Wheels:
Sumitomo HTR Z's, 245/45-17 front, 275/40-17 rear, Cragar Soft 8's, 17x8 front and 17x9 rear

Body:
Fiberglass cowl hood, clear headlight/blinker covers, leaning toward Atomic Orange Metallic right now, but we know how that changes..

that thing looks sick! :thumbsup: Nice work. You don't see too many late 70 camaros being built. Keep up the good work.

Very cool, keep us posted.

And welcome aboard. :thumbsup:

Got it on the ground this weekend, finally. Only took two years to do the front and rear suspension. Rest of the car should be relatively easy in comparison..
