Default Project "Dorothy" daily driven 1969 Camaro

I've been toying with my Camaro for many years now. I think that the only difference between my "build" and many others on these forums, is the fact that I drive the car daily, usually 5-600 miles a week. My knowledge and ability is less than stellar, but I'm trying.

I purchased the car from the original owners son, that kept it garaged after she passed away. Her name was Dorothy, so I felt it fitting to name the car in her honor. When I bought it, the car was all original, aside from tires, battery, some door/ side guards and a dash mat... My initial plans were to keep it original and enjoy it, no mods, no changes, just to enjoy it. Those plans lasted about a week.

I changed out the steering wheel, installed the seat track extenders (I'm 6'-4") and that's when the modifications began to snowball. I had another 69 Camaro that I had been planning to build for my toy, and this car was going to be my driver. I'm pretty sure we can all relate to the sidetracking of project cars. The changes started coming quickly, and before I knew it, the other 69 was sold, and the daily driver started getting better and better.

I'll try to keep on track and with a somewhat "in order" photo trail here...

Enjoy

Jason
