Default 69 Camaro

I've been working on this thing for about 2 years now. I finally have a little more time to really start getting stuff done.

I have about 95% of the parts, I just need to put it together, starting with the back half.

I bought a rear end thinking it was the right width for my ap but it was way too wide (pretty big mess up on my part) but oh well. I just got my new Moser M9 and 35 spline axles. Saving up for the center.

List of parts:

Powdercoated frame, inner fenders rad support
Solid bushings
Global West uppers and lowers
ATS spindles
Hotchkis sway bar
C5 vette brakes (front)
Wilwood brakes w/parking brake (rear)
Lee steering box
CPP master
Moog steering components
Moser M9 rear end, 35 spline axles (saving for center w/ wavetrac)

406 sbc, should have around 550-575hp, going to dyno (eventually will go LS)
LT1 T56, Mcleod twin disc clutch and aluminum flywheel
20 gal fuel cell, aeromotive a1000 pump

Forgeline SO3s 18x8 18x12
KDWs 245/335

Corbeau seats
Momo steering wheel
New vintage redline series gauges
AAW wiring harness

2010 camaro ss badges in red
Marquez design tail lights, brushed

Had to start this project on a dirt/gravel driveway. I now have it in a friends garage.

Car is going to be painted matte black. Brakes will be red. Bumpers and trim are going to be painted as close to brushed nickle as I can find.

I currently have the trunk out and am ready to start the back half. A good friend is helping me who actually knows what he's doing. I'm learning as I go. I will post more pics when we start the back half. We're doing a tri 4 link similar to the art morrison setup.

It's not as nice as many of these projects I see on here but I'm trying to do everything myself with some help from friends. Can't wait to get it on the road!

pics of the Marquez taillights and the Momo steering wheel. You can't tell in the pics but I had the taillight housings brushed instead of polished to match the wheels

Test fit the new rear today. Ended up fitting perfect. I need to get some steel and start building the frame now that I have the rails. Here's a couple pics...

Working on getting the front end put together to set the ride height before we start the building the rear. Got the inner fenders and rad support on there today and started taking all of the front body parts to metal. I am going to primer all the body parts before I put them on, hopefully by next weekend.
