Default 69 Camaro

I am currently working on my 69 Camaro. It was actually my brothers car and due to his passing the car is now in my hands. He dies 11 years ago and the car was FINALLY signed over to me by my dad. So now I am currently trying to do a full restoration on this car and eliminate all rust from the body. I am also trying to do this all by myself as local shops have wanted way more money than I have. I have replaces the driver side quarter and will be eventually replacing the the passenger side quarter, tail pan, rear deck lid filler, and installing DSE Deep Tubs. Due to money this is an intersting project as I have to piece it together the best I can. I did get funny looks when I did the driver side and was only buying one deep tub for that side. I told them it was a one tire frier. So this is my project. Pictures available. My plans are to do all body work myself ( less paint) and assemble the engine which will most likely be an LSX.
