Default Finally I have a 69 Camaro!!!

Hello everyone!
I am a mechanical engineer working for the Navy in Bremerton, WA. I just turned 27 and have been working on my 95 TA the last 4 years (slowly). My father builds and paints hot rods in Great Falls, MT. He actually built Shawn Strunk's 69 camaro (https://lateral-g.net/members/strunk/. I have loved 69's since I was a kid, and I have been searching for the right project car for the last 1-2 years. I'm actually waiting for it to be delivered today, I paid $6750 for a roller project car with all brand new GM metal from the firewall forward.

My 95 TA still isn't done, so now I have two projects going at the same time
I haven't decided on an engine and tranny for the TA, and now I spent all my engine money on a 69 camaro.

My plans for the 69 camaro include...
-Either a AME Max G 3-link full frame or Schwartz Full Frame (my dad wants the AME to just rework the floor pans)
-I already have a complete 385 ci LT4 built by Scoggin Dickey Performance Center that puts out 485 HP and 480 ftlb torque
-I am going to use the Forgeline S03P wheels and Pirelli tires off my 95 TA (19x9.5 w 275/30 R19 and 20x12.5 w 345/25 R20)
-Brakes are probably just going to be Wilwoods 14" BSL6 Fronts and 13" BSL4 Rears
-The car will "probably" be painted the same Custom Tangelo Orange as the link to my old 93 TA in my signature with a Gun Metal Hockey Stripe
-As far as body mods they will come as we go

I have been trucking around this website for about 2 years but now have a reason to join, and I will probably be asking a lot of questions.
Thanks,
Luca
