Default british newbie

Hi guys, my name's Nigel & live in Great Britain. I'm currently putting togther a '69 Camaro. It's at the bare shell stage, so loads to do, but thankfully I own my own custom body shop so no problems there.I've a had a '69 'bird & pro street 10 second 55 Chevy & a '72 T/A in the past, plus a variety of other odd ball stuff, rods, VW's etc, but my first love has always been muscle cars.!!I'll post some pics of the Camaro as I work on it. Have a good 'un.Nigel Great site!!

The car's gonna run a heavily worked small block,manual trans, race suspension ( it's going to run in one of our race series as well as being road legal) full original interior but with Sparco seats trimmed to match original trim, full cage,mini tubbed & well lowered. Painted in black with very dark grey metallic stripes (almost black),hideaway headlights, with all factory badges & chrome trim. Wheels as yet are undecided.

Hopefully I've attached a pic of my '72 T/A which I've recently sold to make way for my '69 camaro. The intention was to run it in our Historic Road Sports race series & was set up to do so, but was made an offer I couldn't refuse for it.

I'm hopefully gonna get the car to my 'shop in the next few weeks as it's at the media blasters being bare metalled at the moment. As soon as I get it back I'll post some pics of it. Would you like me to post pics with the basic repairs being carried out stage by stage?
