Talking new guy on the block

well like a lot of others, I bought my dream car when I was a teenager.

Picked up this 69 camaro last week. and I'm gonig to try my best to make a pro touring car out it..




I'm coming from the 4th gen LS1tech group.. I had a 10 sec all motor WS6. I plan on putting a ls1 in this car, but I want to get the suspension, rims and tires, and brakes done. Then the motor..

Any help in pointers, to get me to the goal would be greatly appreciated...

Mike

Welcome to the site! Car looks awesome, but a few of us here are partial to the color scheme! Looks like it will be an good start to your pro-touring car. Just a warning, being around here will turn that thing into a full blown insane pro-touring setup really fast. If you say, "What should I do" beware lol...the minds in here will just blow you away.

Welcome
Tim

I went througgh that stage with my 4th gen.. I'm hoping this time that I come out with a car I can drive just about anywhere I want to..

the hardest part for me so far, is just picking out wheels.

I want to get it right the first time, and not buy wheels twice.

Andrew..

Thanks to everyone for the warm welcome..

my plans for the car are mainly street use, some drag racing.. I Had a roll bar in my 4th gen and will never do that again in my street car.

I want a really nice crusier, that i can go to the local shows and hang out with my friends. But I also want a car that doesn't lose to every honda on the block..

Welcome Mike, nice to see you made it over here! I'm assuming you're the same "Moose" from the Pro Touring board.

Beautiful car.
