Holy sh!t Greg ... this build is awesome, I love everything about the build.
Jonathan is such a great guy, your lucky to have him there

Funny, a lot of the CNC stuff your are doing is exactly what I am doing on my latest Landcruiser build, but I am leaving mine bare CNC

Now did I miss it, or am I assuming the car is going to be orange to match the colour of the calipers ??

Cheers
Steve

Love that this is garage built, awesome detail!
The Dukes of Hazard story had me envisioning them beating this on the farm

Thanks, that's a big compliment coming from you. I follow your builds and each one is absolutely amazing! It is so hard trying to do something that has not been done and still keep it looking like a 69 Camaro.

My calipers are actually black, the LS7 engine will be the standard Chevy orange. I have gone back and forth with colors but I always go back to my first choice which is white with a black hockey stripe.

Amazing build.. Attention to detail is second to none. And I'll echo what others said.. Being a garage built car makes it even better!! Keep up the great work!!

Friend from Cali came back for a few days. Spent the entire time getting the front end dialed in and the making the RS grille fit correctly. Not an easy task.

Not really feeling the flat panel I had made for my Holley 12.3 Pro Dash. I am making a mock up piece to send to Atomic Machine. Going to give it a little more character and some depth to it. TJ will be able to work some CNC magic on my crude mock up.

Ordered some high build polyester primer. This means we are getting close to the next phase of body work.
