59 Bel Air Build - Lateral-g Forums

NAPA 68 · #1 10-28-2010, 09:08 PM

Killer site! I've been lurking for a fair amount of time. I've gotten alot of great information for the 59 Bel Air I am in the process of building. The car started out as a 73,000 mile unrestored car with a 235 6 cyl. and Air Ride. I am in the process of fitting an LS1/4L60E into it along with a different items for ride, drive, and comfort improvemnets. I am going to leave the patina and drive the daylights out of it when I'm done. The only part of "G Machine" here would be gargantuous. Here is a few photos.

I also fool around with a few other things (great wife)

422 SBC w/ 499 RWHP

I really enjoy the build threads. The quality of work is very humbling. Keep up the good work everyone!

Looks like a cool group of cars. I still have a soft spot for the big boats even though I lost my butt on the 63 I had.

I am right down the road in Caledonia, just 15 minutes south of the airport.

Welcome aboard Tim. Very nice cars indeed.
You are on the correct site for sure. Lots of knowledge and great people here. Any modifications to the 4th gen Camaro? Looks nice.

WOW! Very nice.

(I didn't even see the HP rating on the hood.)
Not many of those around, especially in good condition. Hold on to that puppy for sure. Should bring some bucks later on down the road.
