Default just another 2nd gen, MI71

Well it seems that second gen's are hot. My name is Jon and the name of my shop is Metal Innovations. I am building this 71 camaro for a customer, he really likes the pro touring look so that's what were going to give him. The plans for the car are DSE Q-link in rear and a heidt's front clip, the car will have an LS motor and a six speed, Wilwood 13" brakes alll around and either 18"front 20" rear or 19"front 20"rear wheels and tires. We will be changing some things around on the body like bumpers and the nose and the rear tailight panel. Here are some pictures and I will update often.

Nice Project. Don't toss those Torque twisters, the might be worth something someday. I always wanted a set of those back in high school, but never had enough money.

Great looking project you have going there !! Nice work on the firewall smoothing too............ One tip though, if you can talk the customer down from the ledge on the wheel size to maybe 18's max, you'll be doing him a favor.......... More pics on the progress too, this should be one sweet 71' !!

Ok, We are making a few little changes. We will be running the DSE front subframe instead of the Heidt's. We will be running 18"x10" and 18"x12" wheels and tires. Also in the works is one of the new motors from world products, it's a small block ls hybrid. Thanks, Jon.
