Default Birthday Presents.(pics)

Hello everyone. I've been a member for a while but mostly a lurker.
I got a few nice Birthday gifts from the wife last week so I figured I'd share. New aluminum radiator with custom aluminum shroud and electric fan, DC fan controller, DSE Closeout, new seats. I hope to have these done in time for the spring. With 3 kids under the age of 12, all playing sports, its tough to find the time to get these things done. These are all going into my 68 Camaro. Oh, and I'm new at posting pics so hopefully this works ok.

Here is what they are going into. Its an older restoration that I plan on driving for a few years while I save to redo the body/paint/minitub. So far I've put the original motor in storage. I Replaced it with a 383, 700R4, 8.5 10 bolt out of a nova. Suspension is Hotchkis springs f/r, Hotchkis sway bar, bilstein shocks and Global West Upper control arms.



Sorry I don't have better pictures.
Greg

I got them from Arizen Racing. Talk to Mark. He is great to work with and can do just about anything you want.

That's a really sweet ride you have there Greg. Don't see that color/top combination very often. Nice for a change. And it's more fun to see your pics than to just have you lurking...

You wife must know your car pretty good to order parts for it. My girl wouldnt have a clue what parts to order if I told her. Car looks good. I like those seats alot too.
