1969 Camaro Restomod Project Thread

Very awesome Will. They are really moving on that car. Should be really nice when complete.
Any luck with selling the "other" Camaro?

Time for another update:

Roy gave me an email letting me know the car will be ready to pick up this week. I went by to take some more photos of the progress to update this thread and give you guys something to see Plus I have proof that it's been on a rotisserie now so that should increase the value (LOL - Frame off "resto").

New dash is in. Caught them welding in my rear brackets!


They also got the transmission tunnel patch put in.


They also did a little work and got the door gapped pretty darn well. Hard to tell in the picture but it's almost identical top to bottom. When it started the bottom was VERY close to the quarterpanel. Didn't get a picture of the driverside but it started out better and outcome is just as nice.


They had to do a lot of work on the new trunk to get it to fit the rear fill panel well. It was good side to side on the quarterpanel gap but needed work on the top edge as it had a significant gap on one side and touching on the other. They managed to get it all looking pretty good








You can see here, the minitubs are in (as already mentioned) and they have the quadralink brackets installed as well as the shock crossmember.


Another shot of the shock crossmember and the trunk patch panel.


Driver door patch has been made and completed.


Passenger door patch panel has been completed as well.

The two small floor patch panels that were needed have been installed and completed.


Lastly a few misc shots of the car on the rotisserie










These old crusty parts await their limited time back in the car. These will be replaced before the car is driven. The DSE 9" awaits in the garage and I will be buying a new front subframe (yet to be decided). These will stick around until the car is through paint.

Got the call today. Car is ready to be picked up rushed over for more pictures. I'll post them when I get back to the house.

As promised, here are the completed pictures of the car. I hope to pick it up on Friday/Saturday.

Passenger fender has had the lower portion patched due to rust and the antenna and badge holes have been filled:






Driver fender has received the same treatment:




Car looks "complete" with the suspension back under it again. This suspension, as mentioned is temporary until we can get the car through body work. Rather not have to worry about taping everything off when being painted. Front subframe will be after paint anyway so definitely waiting on that!
