Hey Everybody!
My name is Josh Bittinger. I'm 33. Ive been a gearhead all my life. I'm currently building a 1967 Firebird. I'm in the process of installing an LS1 and T56 six speed out of a 2000 Z28 Camaro. The interesting thing about my build is that I have a CNC Plasma Cutter in garage and will be fabbing as many of my own parts as I can. I'll be doing motor mounts, coil over shock mounts, transmission mount, all in house. I'm swapping over the 2000 disc brake setup off of the camaro as well as all sorts of other goodies.. Currently Im in the process of cutting my own brackets to mount up the 2000 model disc brake calipers
Probably the biggest task is that I want to do an IRS. I know I can design and build much of it in house and will certainly be looking for opinions along the way as I decide how to build the rear end.
If anybody needs anything cut, feel free to send me any .dxf file and I'll help out when I can!
I'll be adding pics as I go!
All in all, I'll have a jet black 1967 Firebird with modern yet classic interior powered by a modified LS1,T56 combo with disc brakes all the way around with coilovers on all 4 corners and IRS.
Cheers!
Josh
