Default Been down long enough!!! Project: "Amatuers said it was impossible"

Hi all, I am going to start a project thread of my 1967 Camaro and will not promise progress (money is funny right now), but just to show that i have progressed in the last 2 years.I purchased the car off of ebay a couple years ago and the story goes that it was parked and hit in the rear by a drunk driver at 10am. I got it home and immediately started taking the smashed parts off and quickly realized i was in for much more than i bargained for. I forgot to mention that someone wanted a convertible without paying the convertible price? I welded the roof back on and can just call that practice. I then cut the roof off and separated it from the structure, realigned the structure and squared it, I then put the roof back on. I straightened and reinforced the frame rails and pictures will show the rest. I shopped around for parts and eventually left the idea of going big block backed by a six speed. I got a deal on a 6.2l and a 5.3l engine and a 6 speed tremec.
So from those two motors will come my setup. Impossible is nothing! -Ram
