Default Another newbie to this board

Been on PT for awhile now, I thought I was on here too, but I guess I wasn't. I am building a 68 Camaro. Hopefully get some pics up soon of progress.

Was a 468 with 250 NOS, TH350 manual valve body, 4500 stall with transbrake, and 456's. Great car very fast, but no fun to drive around town... Dark Blue metallic with Silver rally stripes.

This lead me to want to change it and drive it more. Started off little, but then the bug bit me. Project started in Jan 05, since then my wife and I have moved up north from San Jose, to El Dorado Hills in CA, found out we have a baby boy coming so the car sat for a little while.

Motor will still be a 468 toned down a little more, bottle is gone and making way for a D1sc for hood clearance issues, did not go to the F series..... I will be running a water injection kit as well, thanks to help from Jody, thanks again by the way. I also added the TKO-600 with and will be changing the rearend to maybe a Fab 9 since they are local now with 3.90's. I have added Acura Integra front bucket seats and a Ls430 center console that will house everything I need including power windows, etc. The car will hopefully be getting painted soon, Super Red with gunmetal grey rally stripes. Dash and center console are painted as well......

Welcome -
Sounds like you have a great project and have already been gaining info from some extremely knowledgable forum individuals (Jody).
Good luck and keep us posted.

...and congrats on the baby boy !
