Default budget home built pro touring 69 camaro

here are some pics on the progress of my 69 camaro project. every part has been built by myself with a little help along the way from my stepdad scott who built the 69 sunoco camaro. I built my own subframe using modified stock camaro stuff power unisteer rack speedway engineering splined sway bar QA1 coilovers wilwood 13" brakes LS1 and T56. out back is a home built nascar style trailing arm set up with panhard bar and QA1 coilovers. 9 inch ford with a speedway motors posi trac third member 3.89 gear moser 31 spline axles. centerline wheels 17X11 and 17X9.5 with 315/35/17 and 275/40/17 rubber. most everything was done by me at home in my two car garage with the help of scott and brian kellison who helped me out with the paint and body work. the main goal for the build was to build a car on a tight budget that was capable of turning down some quick times on the road course and autocross and still be a pretty well mannered street car. just thought id throw up a few pics and see what everyones opinion was.
thanks, kevin.

As fast as he is you think he was related to Mary Pozzi instead of me.He should be pretty quick in this car.It does not have a big block in it.

That's good, it takes a special person to drive a big block car and wipe up them LSX's.
