73 camaro project - Lateral-g Forums

Hello guy and gals, thought I would take a minute and actually introduce myself. I've been hanging around here for a couple years and have never said HELLO.

Anyways my name is Matt and I'm slowly building my 73 camaro.

Here are the thoughts I've come up with so far

I've built a 370 (I know I should have stroked it) starting with a 6.0 iron block, mahle pistons, scat rods, lunati cam & lifters and some other goodies.

I'm planning on running t56 magnum and a 10 bolt I have that's been narrowed (it should last for a lil while).

I'm gonna run stock sub with speedtech arms & coilovers in front with DSE 2in drop mini tub kit in rear with mini tubs.

Already have the tubs installed along with the DSE sub frame connectors.

Basically just getting going on this again after lil break (kid #4) progress will be slow and updates will be slower, but I'm getting there.

Here's the car when I got it.

Well not much of an update but little progress made

Welded up large and unused holes in rad support and got it primed. Stripped paint from pass. door and started fitting panels.

Subframe connectors done.

Mini tubs done.

Hey guys, little bit of an update.

I purchased full quarters and tailight panel from Classic.

I got her braced and started cutting last night, so far so good

Also mocking up engine, I'd like to get it an inch or so lower.
