Default New to Lateral G

I'm Charles from White Settlement, TX. I'm currently putting together my dream car before I get married or have kids. I have a 69 Camaro that I'm putting a 383 stroker that produces 524hp 497ft tq with a T-56 behind it. I've recently purchased all these parts including 18 & 20 Foose Legends, QA1 coil-overs, Wilwood 4 piston 11.25in brakes, drop leafs and a few other parts . My car is currently getting some new sheet metal installed and I can wait to get it home in a few weeks to start really getting after my build. I'm a college student with a small budget and doing what I can, where I can. I look forward to learning as I go and hearing the insight provided. Thanks !

Welcome Charles. Good idea getting what you can done before you have a family. Kids can get expensive fast

Hey, I saw your motor purchase on the "other" site--LOL---looks like you scored on that deal--that's a great HP/TQ combo for the money--congrads. Get those pics coming--we are a visual group! Looking forward to seeing it come together!!
