J-ROD '68 Camaro

[J-Rod&Custom]

We're currently working on the this '68 Camaro for a customer. Its a pretty "simple" build with a mild amount of fabrication... The body will be very stock, all factory trim and emblems. The only exterior mod will be a little bumper tuck front and rear...

Its getting a DSE front clip, Art Morrison IRS, 427 BBC with an early corvette tripower, and a 5 spd.

Should be a fun build!



Heres where we started:




The body was very clean! The worst part of the car was the colony of mice that lived in it throughout the years... We found rust in very unusual places.


The glamorous part of building cars... Scraping undercoat for a day... Thank God for the rotisserie!


We got the main areas of the car blasted, and mounted it to the frame table. I was pretty surprised to see that the body was twisted about 1/2"! An easy fix now, but could have been a nightmare!
