Default I must be insane!

I have been a car nut for 40 years, My first car was a 76 455 4sp Black Trans AM. I guess I am trying to relive my youth. Going to build this all myself in my own Home Shop/Garage.

I started with a $200 71 Formula 4spd RUSTY CARCASS bought out of Wisconsin. I have replaced almost every panel except the roof and outer cowl. I have installed a DSE Quadralink, Minitubs, Subframe Connectors, and Hydorformed Subframe. Wilwood Aero 6 Brakes, and have Been working with Jason Rushforth on a set of wheels. LT4, Ultimate Headers, TKO-600, and a 9".

Here are a few picks of along the way.

Wow! You’ve got the makings of a great project car, love those early 70’s Camaro’s. Any thoughts on an exhaust system yet? Can’t wait to see the finished product. Until then good luck on the build!

Sounds great! When the timing is right give us a ring at 707-544-4761 and we can run through all the muffler options that may be of interest, as well as hook it up with forum member pricing. Until then we’ll keep following your build thread.

I love 2nd gen builds and looking forward to seeing this one.

On a side note I have a set of NOS door skins if you need them. I bought them and then realized they were not for a Camaro.
