I probably dont have a very good chance but figured i'd give it a shot anyways...I would like to submit some past projects i have worked on/built. The first is a 1962 Mercedes Benz my dad bought over 25 years ago. When i was 15 i started working on restoring it. Overall, the car was in good shape and only needed a paint job and some other minor repairs to freshen it up! Great starter project, but then i bought a '67 C-10 that I did all the work on and drove through high school and college. Most recently is my '69 Z/28. The Benz and C-10 have been sold and the Camaro is my only project at the time. I put on those rose colored glasses when i bought it and bit off more than i could chew! But im not one to give up so even if it takes me 10 years, i will see this project to completion!
Already have the Art Morrison Max-G chassis on a frame jig. All the new sheet metal is purchased, now i just need to set the car on the frame and fabricate the floor pans, firewall, wheel tubs, etc. I hope to stick an LS-7 and 6spd tranny in there. Still undecided on paint, but thinking i will go back to the original garnet red with black stripes and a black interior!
If i win i would use the money to purchase a bead roller to help with floor, wheel tub, firewall fabrication!
