Hello Lateral-g.net,
I have been looking through this forum for several years now and have gotten great information and ideas. I would like to introduce myself and tell a little about my projects. I have always loved muscle cars. I grew up working with my father in his body shop. He and my brother still run a body shop. I went away from the business, but have always had hobby cars and motorcycles and friends cars to work on. Well I love my time with my projects. I have completed a 1980 Camaro Berlinetta last year and I'll post pics shortly. I started this project December 2005. It is a 1967 Camaro. I have decided to go pro-touring / g-machine with this car so I have searched through many forums for ideas. I will be installing Wayne Due front and rear C4 suspension. It will be modernized with 99 Camaro interior (dash, center console and steering column). I have e-mailed some of you in the past and you have all been great help and give great advice. I will be doing most of the work myself and my goal was to have a finished product like Mr. Rupp’s ZO69, I'll be installing an LS2 pretty much stock with headers. The car has been completely taken apart I found rust and decided to have it media blasted (Paint stripper was a mess). I found a place (no kidding) around the corner from my house (less than a mile) that does walnut shell blasting and they did a great job. I will be installing DSE mini tubs and reworking a WD IRS kit so that I can bolt it in. The best part of this whole project is my 11 year old son and I have been doing this together and he has just asked if we can build him a car when he is ready to drive. Sorry for the lengthy intro. I plan to post more in the future and seek the wonderful advice of the Lateral-g.net members.
Thanks,
Here are a few pics.
