Oh,
I see i need to update my sig,
Beeing faithfull to myself, i ended up selling the '67 roller and picked up an ols race car of a '69. The car had been in storage for over 15 years when i took it out of its hiding place a few weeks ago. :-)
Its a tubbed out ride, done old school, but a very nice and SOLID car. The body is extremely solid. The rockers are asking new solid, car is all steel xcept hood and deck lid. Doors and fr fenders are orig. MINT GM oem and get this... Same thing for the 1/4 panel's!!! I spent a lot of time loking for a cut line when we were loking at it before the buy as i could not beleive it still had the orig 1/4's on lol!!! Yep! They are!! They just did a poor stretch job and i got a set of skins to remedy that. I'll metal finish em so it dont look like it was ever played on. It deserve's it!
Anyway, plans are a 6.0, s475,400, it has a narrowed 12 bolt qnd ladder bar's on for now,but not sure if im not gonna 9 inch it. (And either 4 link or leaf it).
i already have the 6.0 and the 400, shopping for a snail and ordring ebay turbo headers. Its a budget build (like if that really exists!) and having been a Camaro nut all my life, i have A LOT of stuff for it. Like the hood, it was off my Monster black 'vert i built on here, i have a brand new set of calvert split leaf set up and caltracs, (why im leaning to re-small tire it) i have a set of glass frt fenders. I just dont know if im going to remove the whole back half yet, and if i do, im not sure if id go back to such a set up.... Or just rebuild it as a stock-ish floor (still tubbed) and a small tire car. Which i came to favor over the d14x32 style that it is presently. Lol!!! I alway wanted a full on, tubbed out, crazy pro street car, and now that i have put my hands on one, the hot ticket has become the small tire cars!!!!!
That just my luck,
Oh well. It need's a floor anyway (what was lef of the previous original "born with" floor was removed by the guy i got it from when he lwas going to do re- do it) so i'll have to make a decision...... Soon.
Lead.
