Default It's official, I'm a tree hugger, Gone Green

Not a new project but figured I would officially introduce it. 69 Camaro, stock sub-frame smoothed out, DSE everything, coil overs, arms, steering box, etc. Rear is Currie 9 inch with locker and DSE 4 bar, coil overs, Ricks stainless tank. Wheels are Forgeline 19's all around 8 and 11 wide, tires are Bridgestone 245/45/19 and 335/45/19. Engine is gen1 SBC, 421 with AFR heads, solid roller with Jesel shafts, combo should be good for 550 hp. Plan on running E85 (carb not done yet so race gas for now). Hughes built 4L80E, compushift controller etc (thinking of going with the paddle shift). Paint is Viper Snakeskin Green over the original panels in rear but repo stuff for front. Interior is still up in air but have a few things for it, Marquez door panels and Sparco seats. Going to try and run C6 vette gauges and surround grafted on to the stock dash. Just got it back from paint and will have to wait awhile for the funds to build up before we continue. I'm thinking of bolting the seats in and driving it as is but wife said No! We'll see about that! Thanks for all the help and the great deals from members on all the parts used.

can't seem to post pictures so i'll post a link.
