Hello Everyone,
My name is Tony. I been browsing this website for a few weeks. I've learned a lot and hope to learn even more. I really love the pro touring Camaros. So a couple years ago, I bought a 68 Camaro and I restored the car pretty much to original but the rims. Then I went to a couple of shows and realized, I really wanted a 69 Camaro mini tub. A couple of months ago, I bought one.
As you will see in the pictures. It's exciting to buy a new car and pushing it up the driveway into the garage. I am able to do all the work, thanks to this site and all the great people that post how-to.

Azure turquoise because it's original to the car but I really love black so I'm undecided.
I got the car on a Sunday and I started right away!
The previous owner tried to patch the rocker & quarter panel but it's all been replaced with new!
