Hey Everyone New Guy Here With Another 69 Camaro!

[b757jetdr]

Hello Everyone,

I just wanted to post some pics and give a quick little update on my project. Update is that it is going SLOW!!! LOL But I know it will be right this time! After we got the car all stripped and parts rolling in it should start picking up some speed. I figured out I can't take pics in the hi setting on the camera and get them to upload here, so I will put the rest in a link. I have been on information overload reading about about everyones great projects and getting some cool ideas! I am also getting Great info on what works and what might not work. And last but not least I am going to need to knock off a few banks to get this project done the way I want

And just a FYI and this might be old info but the spray on bedliner stufff (SEM I think) that was on my car does not come off with most blast media very well! I spent 2.5 days scrapping by hand with a propane torch, then made a 2nd trip to media blaster to clean it up nice.

Thanks more to come later!

Chris,

Welcome to LG. Nice to see another car getting the treatment it deserves. Nice to see the pictures and progress. Yeah it sucks to go slow, but it sounds like you're getting some great advice and on track for an awesome build. Keep at it and throw up pictures whenever you can. I'd love to see a few of that 1946 Ercoupe you're restoring...if you get the chance.

See you around the pattern.

Welcome aboard, Chris. What kind of equipment do you support as an aircraft mechanic?

Curtis,
I would love to send you some pics of the coupe ! Send me a PM with a email so I dont clog up space here. I noticed from some of your post it sounded like you maybe a airline pilot?? If so with who?

Scott,
I work for UPS in Louisville I work on every thing we have in our fleet 757, 767, A300, MD11, and 747's. Right now I work in the structures shop doing sheetmetal and composite work. I use to work at a outer gateway and took complete care of 3 jets at any one time mostly 757, 727, DC8, and A300's

I wanted to ask is there a way to transfer this thread to the project updates or better to just start a new one??

Thanks!

Wow! Where does someone from MI find a '69 in such great condition? That thing looks real solid and a great project to start with. Keep the updates coming.

Billy will keep you steered in the right direction for sure.
