My new 69 project

[DFRESH]

Looks great Jay---the color is unique and really stands out--great choice. I didn't go back through the entire thread, so kindly remind me if this will be a surprise to your wife for her Bday---either way I really like that you are doing this car for her and that the car is something she is into. Looking forward to seeing this one completed and driving.

Thanks D. It was for her birthday, but no this is not a surprise. She has always been into cars, so when the new camaro came out, since wanted one of those. But she really wanted a 69 camaro, so I starting searching for one and found one in March 2010 and began with restoration.

Good luck with your build. It goes by fast, as its been almost 2 years for this build and I still have a few more months to go. Something about a budget that keeps getting in the way.

Jay, their Installion Center is in Georgia, about an 1 hour and 45 min. for me to get there. It was at Craig Hopkins shop (they did a Charger on Chop Cut, Rebuild) but now it's at Jim Davis shop. Jim bought an old Chevy Dealership and moved it there. Here is a pic of the Chevelle they did at Craig shop for the SEMA show in Los Vegas last month, also here a pic of my floor pan.

Hey Keith,

No major pic updates. I have changed out front springs to a 3" lowering spring and added aluminum blocks to rear with DSE leaf spring plates and tow hooks with 1/2" u bolts. Mounted condenser and drier and working on mounting VA unit.
