70 Camaro project

[slenning]

Ben Hermance finished up this rendering for me a few months ago and I'm finally getting around to starting a build thread. Ben did a great job as always and nailed exactly what I was trying to achieve with this build.

This is a list of what's planned


Wegner Automotive 441CI LS7
Centerforce DYAD clutch
T56 Magnum trans
DSE 12 bolt rear with full floater, Trutrac diff, 33 spline axles
6S 14” Baer Brakes and Remaster master cylinder
DSE Quadralink
DSE subframe
C&R Radiator w/ oil and steering cooler
AutoRad radiator support

C7 Vette Laguna Blue

Carbon Kustoms carbon fiber hood, nose, front fenders, inner fender wells
Anvil Auto deck lid, rear spoiler, mirrors
Carbon Fiber front and rear bumpers
Front Spoiler/Splitter from D&Z Customs
Custom dash with Dakota Digital VHX gauges

Tires - 315/30/18 front - 335/30/18 rear
Wheels as shown Formula 43 Rad14 (but I also really like the Forgeline GA1R) GRRR I can't decide

I knew I wouldn't get away without posting pics for very long. lol I've actually been working on this off and on for a while now (too long). But I did re-restore my 69 SS396 Camaro motor and suspension along the way, and the seemingly never ending tweaking on my "finished" LS769.



Back to the 70
Here's what I started with. I of course thought it was a better starting point than it really was.



Pretty soon it looked like this

Thanks!! I'm gonna cheat on my pics a bit and jump ahead to this:


This is a 305/19 mounted on an 11" rim. (Spare set of wheels and tires for my Z28 for street use). Plenty of room for a 315 I think. This is the Carbon Kustoms fender.

Very nice and I can't wait to watch the progress
